‘How to manage a game and win ugly is a big topic for us’ – Hurzeler

Must read

Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler has been speaking to BBC Radio Sussex after his side were forced to settle for a draw against Wolves: “We were not clean enough in the defending during the last 10 minutes. We were too passive and not professional enough to finish the game in an ugly way. We haven’t managed this today, so we have to learn from it.

“Hopefully we learn quickly but how to manage a game and win in an ugly way is a big topic for us. They are still a young team so I’m sure they will learn from it.

“It is important to also have bad experiences because if you only have good experiences, you won’t grow personally. In these moments, you can show your character and you can show how strong you are. You can lift yourself up and show a reaction.”

On Evan Ferguson’s goal: “Of course [it will give him confidence]. Evan works hard and I think this goal will help him to gain self confidence back. We will provide him with an environment where he will improve.

“We need everyone [at the moment]. Like I said, we have some small issues with some of our players at the moment, so we don’t have the full squad training, but we will try to manage it.

“We will need all of our squad in the next games, it is very important.”

On whether Lewis Dunk came off with an injury: “I’m not sure yet. We will have to wait for the scan and then I can say more. Of course we couldn’t take any risks with him.”
