Brighton quickfire end of season review
After a run of one win in 13 games, head coach Fabian Hurzeler took a more pragmatic tactical approach, utilised more experienced players and switched Jack Hinshelwood to No 10. The club secured a second successive eighth-place finish in the Premier League and a place in Europe for only the second time in their 125-year history. The promise of a first major trophy was only halted by top-quality Premier League sides Arsenal (League Cup) and Liverpool (FA Cup).
