Brighton have a long physical issue list yet capability to the Europa Association knockout stages, in addition to a seven-game unbeaten run showed the Seagulls could adapt.
In any case, the shortfall of Lewis Dunk at Chelsea because of suspension appeared as though one vital injury too much.
Brighton surrendered two objectives from set-pieces with hardly a pause in between in situations where Dunk's impact might have forestalled something like one of them. Then when Brighton were given a course back in with an objective and a Chelsea red card - they required a composed mind to try not to get countered for a third.
Dunk showed how significant he was in fending a wipe sheet off at AEK Athens in midweek. With the middle back missing for Wednesday's visit of Brentford, Brighton need their commander back.
