Brentford 0 Brighton 2

The heat is off Fabian Hürzeler with Brighton ‘s 1st win in 13 games. Club owner Tony Bloom was not at the G Tech stadium due to  a long planned family engagement but had he been he would have sat amongst the Brighton faithful as it’s common knowledge that he and Brentford’s  chairman Matthew Benham  do not get on  Had he been there he would have been impressed as Brentford under Keith Andrews have surprised a few sides and coped well with the  losses  of Mboma, Wissa and Norsgard

One of the main criticism by supporters of the young German coach who turned 33 on Sunday is that he tinkers too much in his selection . Harry Howell made way for Jack Hinshelwood but the main focus was on James Milner , 40 years young and  after  Gareth Barry holding the record  top tier appearances. It was another evergreen Danny Welbeck who scored the winner.

If he needs to be Tony Bloom can be ruthless but for the moment Hürzeler is safe. There will be a managerial merry go round at the end of the season. Alonso , Reuben Amorim , Brendan Rogers , Enzo Maresca Sean Dyche , Thomas Frank and ex Seagullls gaffer Roberto de Zerbi are available and I expect a few more sackings before the end of the season – Scott Parker , Eddie Howe are likely candidates and Andonr Iriola and Marvo Silva will be out of contract  Pocchetino is strongly linked with Spurs might well be available aftsr the World Cup

. Bloom normally goes  left field but he will be ‘ embarassé de richesse’ though many of those listed above will aspire to a bigger club than Brighton
