The stat Hurzeler loves as he targets more consistency for his Albion team Fabian Hurzeler has highlighted a key number which shows why his Albion side can, as he so often puts it, “trust the process”.

Fabian Hürzeler speaks a lot about wanting more consistency from his Albion side.
But there was an area where they WERE consistent last season.
He was keen to introduce that to our end-of-term conversation. #bhafc

The historic pictures showing the glory days of Spurs and Albion A look back at some Brighton and Tottenham connections from the past

Will any of Spurs' European heroes be moving to League Two next summer?
Our nostalgia column features Bobby Smith, Gary Stevens, a 1970s battle amid fear on the terraces and the magic of Villa and Ardiles - plus a Chris Hughton goal. #bhafc #thfc www.theargus.co.uk/sport/251836...

Olivier Boscagli wanted to join Albion last summer. The way he reacted to that disappointment impressed PSV watchers and should bode well.
He loved the way Albion scouted him.
And, like Fabian Hurzeler, he cycles to training.

Thanks.

I'm on newspaper and online liveblog duties at the Amex this evening. Here is your link for the latter. Available to subscribers and non-subscribers alike - and we welcome your comments on the action or indeed the season. #bhafc www.theargus.co.uk/sport/matchd...

Fabian Hürzeler mentioned he has spoken to Tony Bloom about the need for more physicality in the squad. So does that suggest plans for next season are well under way? I asked him…. #bhafc www.theargus.co.uk/sport/251718...

An unusually late post but, having seen the news this evening, I wanted to get this done before getting wrapped up in Hurzeler's press conference, etc on Friday.
RIP to a winger who excited at the Goldstone - and elsewhere. #bhafc

Georginio Rutter - his favourite moments of the season, his Prem lessons learnt and how he tackled an injury-enforced absence. #bhafc www.theargus.co.uk/sport/251650...

Has Joao Pedro fallen a little out of favour with some Albion fans? Are his biggest qualities also his biggest weaknesses on a bad day? He is free for action after what felt like, in real terms, a four-match absence. #bhafc www.theargus.co.uk/sport/251665...

Another reminder of how young this Albion squad is. He only gets in by about six weeks but Joao Pedro is a contender for Prem young player of the year. #bhafc theargus.co.uk/sport/251661...

I'd agree. Why take any risk now? Especially with Joao Pedro back. And right about his character too, as we saw v West Ham. That all said, I suppose he could get half an hour at Tottenham and score the goal which secures Europe.

It was a pleasure to chat to Georginio about football, horses and moving to Sussex.
The Premier League and Hurzeler's demands have been a culture shock - a bit like his trip to Cheltenham!
(So not a transfer story but I'm still hoping it gets a few readers)

This was supposed to be about what Opta think of Albion's chances of finishing 8th.
It developed into: Why aren't fans more enthusiastic about the race for Europe? I don't currently sense much excitement and I have theories as to why that might be. #bhafc

He's there, he's ready - has Webster's impressive return given boss a decision? Adam Webster has given Albion a defensive decision to make against the new champions.

One of the other storylines from the win at Wolves and now looking forward to Liverpool’s visit. The successful return of Adam Webster. #bhafc www.theargus.co.uk/sport/251567...

Wieffer targets Europe - as he explains plan which tamed Wolves Mats Wieffer is eyeing a return to European competition – after helping keep Albion firmly in the hunt.

Mats Wieffer enjoyed his part of a plan which worked at Wolves - and knows all about playing in Europe. #bhafc www.theargus.co.uk/sport/251543...

Europe or not, mature Albion show they will be better for this up-and-down season Albion’s latest decent run is being seen in the context of a push for Europe.

Whether it helps them reach Europe or not, Albion’s win at Wolves left them close to their perennial target and offered good signs for next season . #bhafc www.theargus.co.uk/sport/251537...

'Boom' - how van Hecke returned to training and why he is keen to be a leader Jan Paul van Hecke has emerged as a communicator and leader at Brighton - as he showed on his big night.

Yesterday’s early evening piece with a not-so-speechless Jan Paul van Hecke.
It includes what sounds like a very JPvH-like return to training recently. “Boom!” #bhafc

'Boom' - how van Hecke returned to training and why he is keen to be a leader Jan Paul van Hecke has emerged as a communicator and leader at Brighton - as he showed on his big night.

For someone who said he was speechless, Jan Paul van Hecke spoke very well at awards night.
About communication, leadership, togetherness.
And, "BOOM!", about his return to training and heading a ball after concussion. #bhafc www.theargus.co.uk/sport/251476...

Kaoru Mitoma served up a surprise at Awards Night - and NOT by winning goal of the season. 🎌 #bhafc www.theargus.co.uk/sport/251473...

In 2019, Tony Bloom stood in almost the same spot as last night and spoke about Albion as a top-ten team. It felt probably out of reach.
Now 10th feels slightly disappointing. Bloom addressed that shift in expectation when he spoke last night. #BHAFC www.theargus.co.uk/sport/251463...
