"I think Brighton have done well and Tony Bloom who runs it has been an absolute saviour for them.
"His grandad (Harry) was vice-chairman when I was there. Look at what they've done with the ground and the training ground.
"I think Chris Hughton's a very good manager, he's very pragmatic. They know what they want and say they finish 17th, they'll give him another trench of money and then they can go again.
"I also think they look at the players they've signed and say 'you know what, if we go down they'll probably be good enough to get us back' so I like the way that they're thinking.
"It's difficult as well at that level because you're competing against an awful lot of other clubs, probably eight or nine, for the same players all the time so it's very easy to spend all your money and waste it.
"But they're well coached, well managed and certainly well run, and I think of the promoted teams they've got the best chance of survival."
"When you go into the dressing room and you look at Ulloa and the boy from PSV, you're thinking 'wow we've got a real chance now'.
"Obviously they've got one or two goalscorers like Murray, who's more of a Championship player but he got another goal against West Ham and they got a very good result.
"I think Brighton will stay up. Chris has never been under pressure and that's a really good thing from the club's point of view.
"You're not reading in the newspapers that his job's under pressure. I think that comes from the top and Tony Bloom (above) knows that he's got a good manager. If they finish 17th, they've absolutely swam the channel."
