Brighton aren't expected to be very busy on deadline day having made moves for their key targets early in the window. Summer signings have been eased in, with only Maxim de Cuyper regularly featuring in the Seagulls' Premier League starting XI.

Head coach Fabian Hurzeler has reiterated that he is happy with the squad but not totally ruled out late business.

With Tariq Lamptey possibly set to leave, a right full-back could make sense - but Albion have several midfielders who can deputise for Joel Veltman.

Meanwhile, Matt O'Riley is set to join Marseille on loan and Jeremy Sarmiento, Julio Enciso and Facundo Buonanotte are all expected to leave.

Following Joao Pedro's move to Chelsea and Evan Ferguson's departure on loan to Roma, Danny Welbeck is the only recognised number nine, but Giorginio Rutter can push higher up the pitch.

Stephanos Tzimas, Babis Kostoulas and Tommy Watson are young and developing attacking talents who will only improve, but they may have to be patient for their chance.

Last week, a smiling Hurzeler gave a few hints that there may be some possible late arrivals, but you feel he will remain satisfied with his options if nothing materialises.

We asked for your views on what is still needed by Brighton on transfer deadline day.

Here are some of your comments:

Rufus: Try and get Kobbie Mainoo on loan from Manchester United as he is just as good as Carlos Baleba and will add to midfield depth.

Dyl: One word - striker. We need a striker that can finish. The reason we can't kill games off is because we don't have a lethal finisher. There are so many options for strikers but the manager needs to spend money on people we need rather than more defenders.

Tony: I'm worried that Stefanos Tzimas and Charalampos Kostoulas will take time to get up to speed, and in the meantime we might struggle to score. I feel that we are perhaps one proven Premier League striker short. I'm a big fan of Jorgen Strand Larsen. He seems the ideal fit, but clearly Wolves don't want to sell and we'll need to part with a huge fee to get him.

Derek: Harvey Elliott is totally worth the sum if Liverpool will let him go.

Anthony: If Fabian Hurzeler is going to insist on not playing Tzimas in the league, I still think we need to bring in a proven striker. I don't think an approach for Aleksandar Mitrovic on a deal until the end of the season is as ridiculous as it might sound. It's difficult to not be worried about our lack of converting chances in the league and we're only two games in.

Peter: Keep Baleba - plain and simple.

Baltos: Basically, stick with the squad as it is. However, it is imperative that we don't let any star names go, Karou Mitoma and Baleba especially. If Chelsea come knocking, take the offer price and double it!

Today is the second transfer deadline day of the summer following a brief closure in June because of the Club World Cup.

In a change to previous windows, clubs only have until 19:00 BST to complete deals, bringing the Premier League in line with the EFL, Italy's Serie A, France's Ligue 1 and Germany's Bundesliga. The window in Scotland and Spain remains open until 23:00 BST.

It has already been a hectic window - with a number of storylines still to be resolved - but whether it turns out to be a day of transfer action or a pretty quiet one for your club, you will be able to keep across it all on BBC Sport.

We asked for your thoughts after Sunday's Premier League game between Brighton and Manchester City.

Here are some of your comments:

Brighton fans

Tony: First, Fabian Hurzeler deserves great credit for the quadruple substitution that turned the game on its head. We were very poor until that point. However, I was surprised by City's decline. They are a shadow of their former selves. Their first-half display was possibly the most cynical and negative I have ever witnessed.

Fran: Sloppy and sluggish first half, but the subs again made the difference. I thought James Milner used his experience and we looked a totally different side. Deserved to win.

Chris: Same old one poor half and one good half. A relief to finally get three points - especially against City - after three games, but worry is for another season of inconsistency under Hurzler.

Jane: Subs made all the difference. Surely some of these guys need to start the next game? I would also suggest the new strikers should at least be on the bench, otherwise the money is wasted, isn't it?

Man City fans

Silvio: Pep Guardiola must go! His type of game is over. It would only work with outstanding talents and he no longer has them. Other teams know how to outsmart his tactics and he destroys talented players by de-skilling them - look what he did with Jack Grealish and look how he is performing under Moyes. Tiki-taka football might give you possession, but once you lose the ball you're wide open. He must go.

Ged: Pass, pass, backwards, sideways, pass, sideways - repeat endlessly without any end product. Arrogance, laziness and redundant tactics. The game has changed, Pep - change with it. There is no fear factor when playing City any more. If bringing on Jeremy Doku and Rico Lewis to try to change the game is the answer, then we really are bereft of originality. The only saving grace is that there are plenty of games left.

Mark: Taxi for Pep. No improvement from last season. Same predictable, sterile football. Boring. The club is now more interested in making money than winning trophies. Transfers in the past two seasons have been atrocious. Bring back Vincent Kompany.

Paul: Out of the title race in August. Same issues as last year - no intensity and can't defend.

An impressive second-half display helped Brighton come back from behind to defeat Manchester City 2-1 and get their first win of the Premier League season.

The Seagulls have had a difficult start to their league campaign as they were cruelly denied an opening day win against Fulham by a 97th-minute equaliser from Rodrigo Muniz.

They then were beaten 2-0 at Everton after Fabian Hurzeler's side spurned a number of chances in the first half.

And it looked like more of the same script for much of the first half against Pep Guardiola's City on Sunday.

But Hurzeler proved why he is one of the most promising managers in the business with a quadruple change at the hour mark which turned the game on its head.

Brajan Gruda and James Milner, who both scored, were among the substitutes along with Georginio Rutter and Yasin Ayari.

Milner, wearing the number 20 shirt, converted from the penalty to draw level and paid tribute to his former team-mate Diogo Jota with his celebration.

But the Seagulls continued to probe and forced City goalkeeper James Trafford into one save after another before Gruda rounded him and finished into an open goal to help his side get a much-needed victory.

With confidence restored, Brighton will make a trip to Bournemouth for their next game after international break on 14 September.
