At the Amex Stadium, the Seagulls were denied all three points thanks to a heroic performance from James Trafford, who made an incredible ten saves.
When Wilson Odobert gave them a first-half lead, the visitors threatened to take all three points, but Simon Adingra headed Brighton level.
While De Zerbi believes his team played well and deserved to win, he believes their mentality needs to change if they are to progress in the Premier League.
“I am disappointed with the result,” he told reporters.
“After a good first half, we played a great second half.” We could have pushed harder, but instead we conceded another stupid goal.
“We had complete control of the game for 90 minutes and were unlucky.” However, we must improve.
“If we didn’t win against Fulham, Sheffield United, and now Burnley, it’s because we have some issues with energy or mentality when we need to win.”
“You can imagine that with 26 points on the table, we’d be on 32 points and third place in the table with six more.”
“You can analyze the quality of performances by watching the games against Sheffield United, Fulham, and Burnley.”
“We have the potential to grow into a large team, but we may not be there yet.” We must improve in order for this to happen.
“The players’ behavior and attitude are fantastic. We deserved to win against Burnley, as we did against Sheffield United and Fulham, but if we don’t, we must work even harder and better.”
