FA CupIn the third instalment of the Brighton Fans' Forum, which was live on BBC Radio Sussex on Thursday. Fabian Hurzeler and Paul Barber answered questions from fans around next season's European campaign. Fabian Hurzeler replied: Statistically, the teams who have to play in Europe might finish a little bit lower in the league than expected.
Fan question: You're in your third season at Brighton, but what inspired you to come here? Hurzeler answered: Brighton is known for being a very well run club, with good structure, a great owner, CEO, and others who are responsible for the club. The second reason [for joining] being that it was the Premier League and it's the best league in the world.

Newport County completed their pre-season preparations with a 4-1 friendly defeat against Italian giants AS Roma at a raucous Rodney Parade. Goals from Mario Hermoso, Thomas Castro, Kostantinos Koulierakis and Matias Soule ensured the Serie A side bounced back from their surprising 4-1 defeat to Newport's Welsh rivals Cardiff City last weekend. County, who were only 1-0 down at the break, scored a consolation goal five minutes from the end when summer signing Kyle Cameron headed home from Harrison Biggins' free-kick.
FIFA president Gianni Infantino faced intensified pressure on Tuesday from within world football's governing body as well as from external critics over his since-abandoned proposal to open the World Cup to private investment. Infantino has been swamped with criticism of his style of leadership and a previously smooth path to being re-elected unopposed to a fourth and final term next March now looks rocky.
Brighton scored all of their goals from set pieces as they fought back from 2-0 down to clinch a 4-3 win against Strasbourg to wrap up their week-long training camp in Austria. The Ligue 1 side went two goals up inside the first 14 minutes thanks to Martial Godo and Samuel Amo-Ameyaw, before the Seagulls hit back with two goals in six minutes. Pascal Gross needed a second bite at the cherry to convert his penalty, before assisting team-mate Olivier Boscagli from a free-kick for an important equaliser.
"It is always sad to see a player and a person of his stature leave," says Brighton head coach Fabian Hurzeler following the announcement of Danny Welbeck's move to Chelsea. The 35-year-old forward, who joined the Seagulls on a free transfer in October 2020, went on to make 201 appearances in all competitions - scoring 51 goals and contributing 18 assists. "We are all sorry to see him go," Hurzeler said.
