[Albion] Fabian Hürzeler **SINGED 15/06/2024**

No flight tracking?

 

[Stato]

Should be a window for mangers in current roles (obviously free transfers at anytime) in my opinion

I'd agree, but If there were, we'd presumably be in it, so there's no real issue with this one.

Yes transfer windows should apply to management and players. If a clubs makes a poor appointment then they should be forced to wait for the next window or employ someone who is out of contract.

 

[Change at Barnham]

Two random thoughts come to mind.

1) Is our man Fab closer in age to Tony's teenage son than Tony is to Fab?

2) Is there a more ideal club that would suit RDZ than St.Pauli? They would love him and he would love them. Just a shame their budget would be tight.

€10 m (£8.4m) sounds about right to me - Brand new extension to his contract to 2027 was signed by FH in March (I suspect as a condition Brighton could start formal talks as I mentioned up thread with the exit clause enabling that).

I think personally he is worth it (Bundesliga teams were already interested in approaching him last season I read ) and may include his backroom staff for that amount.

For those feeling sorry for SP fans, there are several comments on the forum saying if SP can negotiate a really good price for FH, they’d be ok. with that. ( SP fans perhaps prioritise the idea of their Club more than it’s individual people than we do?)

Excluding marescu and kompany this would place him around 5th most expensive buy out of all time. Bearing in mind he was probably on max £250k a year in bundesliga 2, and maybe if very lucky got a rise to 800k a year when promoted I'm still sceptical that it will be 10m euros

Sounding like de Zerbi will be getting an agent's fee

I read the article .... Nothing about staying with him but sounds like he watched and participated in training so may even know some of the players already

Who the HELL is Brighton ?

 

[The Fits]

I'd been absolutely amazed if we took all their staff. He might be a baby faced genius but the chances of some random selection of second division staffers also being up to top tier coaching seems unlikely.
Surely we'd want to get in the very best to help someone so young and inexperienced?

[US Seagull]

So somebody had asked a while back about his wag. Not usually a question you ask of a coach, but most coaches aren't 31.

I'm assuming:

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Good on him joining the Exodus that left us with just Crofts? His right, my right to think he’s a snake.

The “Once a Seagull…” was PR bullshit, he wouldn’t have jumped so quick otherwise. Roberts leaving was probably worse as he was good at his job, but at least he didn’t come out with any bullshit previously. I’d have him back. A defender as an attack coach, not much of a miss anyway.

Harsh. (Remembering I love Bruno)
I understand the club refused to guarantee him in a position.

Agreed. St Pauli pay peanuts, their entire wage bill was less than €5m last season and Brian Owen says his contract extension was for 2 years.

I find it hard to believe we would consider compensating them much more than the value they have already established with the contract they agreed 2 months ago.

If we'd appointed McKenna, his staff would have been League 1 last year.

How sweet would it be to keep maldera (or bring him back !) likelihood, very low.

Especially if they are called Chelsea.

If we decided to let him have them all.

Indeed ! 10m euros for a young rookie second division German manager. I think not !! They should be very grateful to be getting a couple of million.

It would be unusual to dictate to a manager who they can have on their staff.

You're not dictating it.
You're saying Fabian, we have a pretty decent staff budget, so if there's people you've met on coaching courses, people you've played with or been coached by, people you admire, let's get them in.
