Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Kemy Agustien has admitted that he is "very sad" to see manager Sami Hyypia leave the club.

Hyypia resigned from his position on Monday following a poor run of form for the Seagulls.

Brighton currently sit four points adrift of safety in the Championship table after winning just one of their last 18 games.

Very sad to see the manager leave. We as a team need to take the responsiblities cuz its up 2 us nobody else to turn this around
