Brighton boss Roberto de Zerbi admits their 1-1 draw with Burnley wasn't good enough.

Wilson Odobert struck for Burnley in the first half before a Simon Adingra equaliser.

De Zerbi said: De Zerbi said: I consider my team a very good team. I have a big, big confidence.

I think there is no one who believes in my players more than me. We are a very good team but we are not a top team yet.

A top team won today, won with Sheffield, won with Fulham. Winning the three games we would be third place in the table.

In these three games we played very, very well and better and better than the opponent.

I think we deserved to win these three games. Then the question is why didn't we win these three games. Maybe because we are not a top team yet.

Maybe the coach of Brighton is not a top coach yet.

Today we shoot 29 times on goal.

Against Fulham we suffered six, seven, eight minutes, not more, and we concede a goal from Palhinha from 23, 25 metres.

Today we concede a goal from 20 metres. We conceded two shots today and Sheffield, 11 against 11, I think was another completely different game.

I am really disappointed and frustrated and I go home thinking what we need to do more to win the game.

We want to keep this level, we want to keep our dream.

Last season no one thought we could reach the Europa League but we reached it.

This season, with these three wins Fulham, Sheffield and Burnley we would be talking about a different position in the table."
