Finally Brighton have sealed and officially announced the deal with Roberto De Zerbi as their new head coach who will become the second Italian coach in the premier league. I really doubt the new manager will be able to maintain the level at which Brighton has improved, I will really miss Graham's tactics and strategies and how well he has improved the team.
Brighton have started the season well, which is in 4th place with 13 points. It's all thanks to the hard work of Graham Potter, it's a shame Brighton had
to lose Graham Potter earlier this season. I also doubt that Roberto De Zerbi can continue the positive results Potter has achieved with Brighton.
But there is nothing wrong with giving De Zerbi a chance to prove his quality as the new Brighton manager.
If we look at Roberto De Zerbi's track record, it's not too bad either. Where De Zerbi as one of the potential youth coaches was quite successful in
boosting Sassuolo's performance for 3 seasons in Serie A, even though we know Sassuolo only has a fairly ordinary squad. Then De Zerbi's career
continued at Shakhtar Donetsk where he managed to make Shakhtar Donetsk top of the Ukrainian League last season. In fact, many rumors circulated
that Roberto De Zerbi was approached by Juventus to replace Allegri. This means that De Zerbi's quality is quite good as a coach. It is possible that
De Zerbi will make his debut as a coach when Brighton play away against Liverpool. This will be a difficult debut for De Zerbi, because Liverpool are
a strong team in the Premier League, even though Liverpool's form has been inconsistent this season.
