Graham Potter says there is more to come from his Albion squad – even without Neal Maupay.

The French striker missed Saturday’s 0-0 draw at home to Newcastle ahead of an expected move to Nottingham Forest for about £15 million.

Fellow striker Deniz Undav did not get on but Kaoru Mitoma sparkled as substitute as the Seagulls chased what would have been a deserved winner.

Head coach Potter said: “We are quite calm, the balance of the team is good.

“The performances have been really strong. We have still got players on the bench who haven’t got on the pitch today who we believe in.

“It’s not like we are are bare on numbers.

“There are really good options.

“Kaoru hasn’t started a game and you can see what he can do so he’s pushing, as are all the other subs.

“We need to make the right calls and the right decisions and we won’t do anything that puts the club in any financial position that isn’t positive.”

Potter said Albion would continue to monitor who is available until the window closes.

He added: “We’ve got a different mix of players but there’s not probably another Danny Welbeck in terms of profile, so that’s something we might look at if we’re going to look anywhere.

“But we’ve got some good options in terms of attacking. Deniz didn’t come on, we’ve still got Evan Ferguson, still got Julio (Enciso) that we believe in, young players.

“Leo Trossard has played up front as a nine, because Kaoru can play wide, so there are lots of different profiles from an attacking perspective.”
