@Brightonian_ We did show up at the Leeds game. Just didn’t take our chances. 1 mistake and we lost. Today we definitely didnt show up but I think, without my disappointed glasses on that Utd were just pretty good.

@rookie7 There was a stage where senior players were not happy , with Dunk being one of them.
When Bloom accepted the offer from Forest out of the blue for Dunk , and then Dunk refused to go , was linked to the point i raised, with Bloom sticking to his managerial appointment
English
I see a lot of “ I was Fab in” & “I never doubted him”
But…there was seriously a stage where he nearly lost the dressing room, tactics were not clicking , & it was an ugly run at the time.
However I’m glad he has turned a corner , grown as a mgr and now needs to continue 💙🤍

@Brightonian_ Anyone that says we haven’t got an identity under Hurzeler must watch different games to me. Notice a certain @ryanadsett has been very quiet on our recent performances.
English
@Brightonian_ Don’t be daft, don’t you know that none of our players have improved under Hurzeler
English
@Freddiesharpe11 @AndyNaylorBHAFC So you are suggesting that the booing at the palace game is the reason we have won 4 from 5? What a crazy perspective that is. 🤯
English
@AndyNaylorBHAFC Mate you taking the mic , if there’s a problem we’re gonna call it out and it probably has woke the team up and there playing better now for it , but you can’t tell me that you think it’s acceptable to only win 1 in 13 but at the end of the day and that’s fact
English
I stand by every word of this, yet I was castigated by people ignoring the second paragraph and justifying the third.
It reflects in a small way the crazy world we live in now. Abnormal behaviour has become normal, routine.
Anything, everything, fair game. No dial, no humanity.
Andy Naylor@AndyNaylorBHAFC
Reflecting on events at the Amex today. #BHAFC Boos were understandable in the circumstances, questioning the manager's judgment on team selection and subs are fair game too. "You're getting sacked in the morning" from his own fans ? Utterly ridiculous and totally unacceptable.
English
@andylutwyche @RJ97__ @Brightonian_ Not too sure we are short in areas just the fact we struck gold all at the same time with the De zerbi team. Mac, Caicedo and gross as a midfield is crazy now looking back. Most won’t agree, but i personally think de zerbi should have done even better with that team.
English
@RJ97__ @Brightonian_ Agreed, a lot of people forget just how good the Albion squad was in RDZ’s time and the fact that the recruitment department has left the current squad short in keys areas (and over subscribed in others).
English
@ryanadsett @Erwin6_ If it was up to you he’d be in charge of us right now. 🤣🤣
English
Has a gaffer been put under the microscope like this before 😭😭😭 he’s cooked for everything
.@TheEstevaoView
He looked at the big screen, saw he was on it and reacted The most performative manager ever, pathetic x.com/youngjohne8776…
English
@Lorriealho @AndyNaylorBHAFC This is very true. Not many of the serial complainers have come out in praise of FH.
English
@AndyNaylorBHAFC What’s the inference here? That fans were being unfair? That’s rubbish. We were on an appalling run and heading south towards the relegation zone. What you should be pointing out now is that some complaining the loudest are quiet now Hurzeler is turning it round. #BHAFC
English
Six weeks ago, sections of Brighton supporters at the Amex demanded the sacking of Fabian Hurzeler. #BHAFC
They will end match round 31 in 10th or 11th, three points behind Brentford in seventh, six points behind Liverpool in fifth.
English
@AnnieTheDog7 @AndyNaylorBHAFC Nonsense. Yeah the players have started playing better because a few muppet fans booed them.
English
@AndyNaylorBHAFC Maybe the reaction that day has led to the improvement? Certainly everyone is playing at a much higher level than they were then.
English
@connoronthisapp @AndyNaylorBHAFC Not sure it was fair. Only 1 really poor performance against palace, the rest weren’t awful just on the wrong side of the result. In the same way the 4 wins we’ve had have been tight games. The quicker some fans realise the margins are tiny at this level the better.
English
@AndyNaylorBHAFC We had won 1 game in 15 at the time. Things can change, and I’m glad they have. But at the time, the criticism was completely fair.
English
@ryanadsett Hang on……. You were calling for the managers head in February now you’re saying we might have a chance of Europe. Crazy times.
English
@owen_bhafc Of course it is a mistake. But like you say he’s been doing it for 10 years or more so he’s got a bit of credit in the bank. 😉
English
I’m sure I’ll get stick for this, but I don’t think this is a mistake from Dunk.
Moment of genius from Kerkez. 999/1000 times the ball goes back to the goalkeeper and possession resets
Football on TNT Sports@footballontnt
A mistake at the back from Lewis Dunk and Milos Kerkez capitalises spectacularly 💫 @tntsports & @discoveryplusUK
English
@TogetherBHA Not sure other clubs are using it for free. You suggesting that the only reason other clubs are interested is down to the fact we have bid for him? In which case that is absurd.
English
We've talked about this at length, the true test of Tony's system is when bigger clubs essentially use it for free when agents get them involved to swoop in late. How do #BHAFC adapt? Can we?

🚨 BREAKING: A local Köln Newspaper claims Chelsea have communicated an offer to buy Said El Mala and his brother : - £38.8m + bonuses - £4.3m salary per year - For Said, unclear if Chelsea or Strasbourg, he is a left wing and there is lot of competition at #CFC - For his brother Malek, he would play in Chelsea’s development side.

@ryanadsett @RaddReynolds Superstar players? Who’s that then? Come in, train hard and you can keep your place. Cant wait to have a dig at the manager can you? 🤣
English
@RaddReynolds Oh yeah no I get that too, but ultimately I think we’ve been guilty of a lot of the more superstar players being limited after ‘training’ issues.
Cultures are very different across the globe and I do think there can be a misconception over attitudes
English
Remember that Aguero fact anyone?
Brighton Buzz@BrightonBuzzz
🚨 Fabian Hurzeler reveals that Albion teen Charalampos Kostoulas was left out of a matchday squad because other players worked better than him in training. 🇬🇷❌ Fabian Hurzeler states: “It was not a decision against Babis, it was a decision for the other players and tomorrow there will be a new opportunity for him to get into the squad and show that he learned from the things that happened before Arsenal.” “I think it's important that we have a clear culture here and everyone has to drive this culture and therefore there are certain moments where we need to give the players an understanding of what I demand from them, of what I want to see from them in every training session." “Especially when we have like that high availability." “Everyone has to train every day on his highest level. “There were one or two players in the last week who just trained better than him before the game against Arsenal. “Therefore, I stick to my principle, I stick to the culture because, long term, the culture always wins. [via @Brian__Owen] #ethnikiomada #BHAFC #Greece 🚨
English
@Brightonian_ They have taken an enormous gamble putting someone in charge who had no premier league experience. Crazy decision if you ask me.
English
I don’t think they’ll go down, but I tell you what, looking at their fixtures it could be a genuine nervous end to the season for Spurs.
I think our win yesterday now puts us mostly out of contention, albeit it won’t be mathematical for a while.
Would be quite a thing if one of Spurs / West Ham / Forest go down.
English
It’s just so PR 😭
The Brighton Base@TheBrightonBase
🗣️| Fabian Hurzeler on feeling support from his players and the Brighton board: “I really feel the support. I really feel the belief. I really feel this togetherness. “I think the club went through much worse times than where we are now at the moment and they know how to deal with these kinds of situations. “Of course, the results aren't great, but we keep focusing on the process. We keep focusing on the things we can influence. “We keep focusing on being a great unit, on being together and then we all have to believe and I think that's also what the board showed. We all have to believe that we can get out of the situation even stronger.” #BHAFC [via The Argus]
English
@mrstaples100 @AndyNaylorBHAFC @nytimes Best in the league last season on attacking set pieces. 🤷🏼♂️ ‘been awful for a long time’. Wanna check your facts.
English
@AndyNaylorBHAFC @nytimes Surely you challenge him on this? We’ve been awful at set pieces for a long time and have reached a new low this season.
English
Brighton appointed a new set piece coach last summer.
Head coach Fabian Hurzeler says they are becoming “more and more like a game changer.”
A look at how it is working out. #BHAFC
