#4 Brighton's defence must improve

Brighton and Hove Albion v Chelsea - Premier League
Brighton manager Chris Hughton faces a tough task improving his team's defence

For all of Chelsea's brilliance in this game, Brighton will surely rue their performance from a defensive standpoint. As a newly-promoted side with the sole target of survival, putting in strong defensive performances, particularly at home, is very important, however, the Seagulls have so far struggled to achieve that.

The four goals they conceded on Saturday was an addition to the 29 they've conceded this season - 14 of which have come at home - and returning to the strong, compact performances Chris Hughton's men put in at the beginning of the should be a top priority, if they're going to improve on their current run of five games without a win and avoid relegation worries
