Fabian Hurzeler: Brighton head coach reflects on one year in charge, learning from experience and management obsession

While Sunday’s return to Merseyside will be in a brand-new stadium, memories of that Goodison Park bow in August 2024 will be forever etched in the young manager’s mind.

“I thought I’d prepared myself, but when the game started I was just impressed by how loud it was, how intense the Premier League is,” Hurzerler tells Sky Sports. “I remember very well how my emotions felt. It was a nice feeling afterwards, but during the game it was a tough experience and one that I learned a lot from. Overall, it was an experience I wanted, it was very positive.”
