Danny Welbeck has challenged Albion to get back into Europe.

The experienced striker scored a fine goal as his side went out of the Europa League.

Their 1-0 home win over Roma was not enough to claw back a 4-0 defeat in the opening fixture.

Welbeck said: “We have to be proud of ourselves, be proud of what we have done.

“We did the best we could.

“We want to keep on improving, keep on progressing as a team, as a club.

“We have a great culture within the dressing room.

“Everybody wants to improve and get better each day.

“We are going to do our best to get back to playing in these sorts of competitions.

“It’s historical - first time in Europe.

“Bringing European football to Brighton was massive in itself but there are some steps we need to take keep on bringing it to Brighton.”
