Bart Verbruggen was never quite able to convince Roberto De Zerbi that he should be Brighton’s undisputed No.1. The former Seagulls boss was never completely sold on the Dutchman after his £16million arrival from Anderlecht last summer, rotating him with Jason Steele throughout the Premier League season.
