Wright believes Aston Villa’s £25m hitman Danny Ings would be the perfect fit for Potter's approach play.
He said: “I can’t remember watching Brighton, since Graham Potter has been there and say ‘oh, they don’t look right today, it’s not happening'.
“They are so well-drilled and well-coached, then they will do that (beating Man United) to a lot more teams. The only problem holding Brighton back is the chances that they miss.

Meanwhile, West Ham are also on the look out for a striker and continue to be linked with a move for Blackburn ace Ben Brereton Diaz.
The Chile international netted 22 goals in 37 games last season in the second tier.
Brighton were previously linked with Diaz last season but West Ham are said to be ready to table a £15m bid, as David Moyes looks to bolster his squad for a Premier League and European campaign.
