The three points were the first Albion have secured away to Tottenham in the Premier League era. Albion won at Arsenal last week but head coach Potter said: “I thought the performance was a step up. “The players were incredible. “Work rate and understanding and discipline and aggression and quality, everything you need. “It felt like we had a good organisation and then an attitude to just run and defend and then be brave when we had the ball as well. “I thought we asked some questions of Spurs. TOTTENHAM 0 BRIGHTON 1 - HOW IT HAPPENED “It wasn’t like a smash and grab game. “We tried to press high, we tried to win the ball back, we tried to construct our attacks. “We are playing against a lot of world class players and a team that is in a great moment." Albion have bounced back from a run of one point and one goal in seven games to set a club record for away wins in a top-flight season. Potter said: “We knew we had to be good and we were today. “You can see historically how difficult it is for Brighton and Hove Albion to win at Spurs. “It’s a great day for the club. “Three points, clean sheet, 40 points with six games to go. “It’s not so bad considering it was Armageddon three games ago!”

Kane will be hoping he can continue to find the net until the end of the season to boost his side’s chances of qualifying for the Champions League next season. When asked where does Kane rank in the all-time best strikers in the Premier League, Potter said: “He’s up there. “It wasn’t so long ago that he was getting criticism because he wasn’t in the box and linking up and he should be in the box more, but then actually his ability to drop deep, his ability to find Son, he’s not just a goalscorer, he’s a top footballer, he’s captain of England, an inspirational figure on and off the pitch. “I don’t like comparing people, he is probably the best Harry Kane that there is."
