I'm loving these quotes from Bridders taken from BBC sport today, absolute legend!!:
Bridcutt, who joined Brighton on a free transfer in August 2010, had a trial with the south London club three years ago but was not offered a deal by then-Eagles manager George Burley.
"I had a few games on trial there," the 24-year-old said.
"It wasn't the club for me and they didn't think I was the player for them. Brighton is the club for me.
"If you look at how far we have come, from League One to fighting for a place in the Premier League, the club is going in the right direction and that is what I want.
"I want to be at a club that is going to the top and I think Brighton is one of those."
