Sami Hyypia: 'I can turn Brighton & Hove Albion form around'

Brighton and Hove Albion manager Sami Hyypia has insisted that he has no fear over his future, despite seeing the club slide into the relegation zone.

Brighton lost 3-0 away at Derby County on Saturday, with two goals from Chris Martin and another from Johnnie Russell all coming in the first 20 minutes.

Hyppia told The Argus: "If I didn't think I could turn the season around I would walk away. I'm still here and I intend to be in training on Monday and then we continue."

The former Liverpool defender admits that any decision is out of his hands after a record of one win in 16 games.

"I have no fear and I think that's quite normal in football. I know our series is not nice to see but that's football, that's business."

Brighton host fellow strugglers Millwall in the Championship next week.
