Adam El Abd (Left) in action

Adam made his return against Crystal Palace, in a tough game against last season's top flight club. Brighton went into the lead twice but each time their opponents equalised. In stoppage time, Palace got a winner to end the game in a 3-2 for the half-Egyptian. El-Abd went into the back-line and
played the full game. After it, his manager had words of praise for him, appreciating the effort he put in.

The trip to Cardiff was next, but with the experienced Dodd back, Adam was kept out. Dodd was however injured after around quarter of an hour, and El-Abd came on. Despite going behind, the Seagulls were able to come out with a point by the end.

Tge latest game was home to Derby County, and El-Abd started once more. An exciting game saw the man of the match award go to on-loan keeper Blayney, who saved a penalty during the encounter. Adam was saved by Blayney, when in the final moments the ball hit his foot in the area and was going into his own net - only for the keeper to rescue.


Brighton however are in 23rd out of 24, and avoiding relegation will have to be, like last season, a huge ordeal.

El-Abd recently revealed that he is content with his current personal form, which looks to have merited him a starting place at the club.
