"I want to challenge the establishment" You've come to the right place! Welcome Fabian 💙🤍

Welcome Fabian. We are with you.

St. Pauli Fan here, despite being a bit disappointed to see him leave I'll wish you all the best!

Tony Bloom, is always a class act. Keep to the top 10 PL finish goal. Not sure on Fabain, a definite mid to high risk but Tony said he was the least-risk option. Great to see all top 4 key BHA Exec on the conference. COME ON SEAGULS!!!

Welcome Fabian. Come on Brighton. We have a winner here. 😊

Newcastle fan here sad to see Minteh go to you guys but was curious about this manager so i decided to have a listen to the interview seems exciting!

Cant wait for next season ❤ Welcome fabian

We're winning the league

humble but ambitious, we have struck gold once again... we have to worship Tony and Paul

He's already been to Coopers for a £3 special.

welcome to brighton fabian!

Viel Erfolg Fabi 🤎☠️

かっこいいなぁトニー。素晴らしいオーナーだわ。 新しいブライトンも楽しみにしています。

Never underestimate the power of the TB algorithm. It’s left field, but he fucks up TB will be ruthless. In TB we trust.

Never thought I’d hear the word Pipinsried in a Premier League press conference 😅excited to see what he’s got in store for the PL🍀

Welcome Fabian, lets have a fantastic 2024-2025 season

Love the confidence omg!

_Press Conference Timestamps_ *Questions for Fabian Hürzeler:* 00:00 What does it mean to you to be the new head coach of Brighton? 00:28 Last season you won promotion to the Bundesliga with St. Pauli. What did [Tony, Paul, and David] do to convince you to leave Germany and come to the Premier League? 01:04 You're the youngest permanent head coach in EPL history. What makes you feel ready for this challenge right now? 01:49 There are six players in this squad that are actually older than you, so how are you gonna make sure that age isn't an issue? 02:22 The long-term vision - the model for the club - it is clear. What are your immediate priorities - what are you hoping that you can achieve in your first season here? 03:01 What do you think are the biggest differences, for you, going to be - coming to the EPL from being involved in the Bundesliga but also with the national side? 03:59 Have you managed to speak to some of the players yet? 04:26 There's a couple of coaches that have stayed. What's the latest in terms of your backroom staff and bringing in your team? 05:32 How much of the EPL did you watch while working in Germany? 06:29 What is it about Roberto de Zerbi's style that you admired so much? 07:15 And you saw [RDZ's style] firsthand in December at the Amex. What was that whole experience like? 08:13 Can you tell us why you decided to retire from playing so young and what gave you the coaching bug? 09:26 You mentioned about you quitting football early to become a coach. You obviously have that self-belief that you're gonna be successful. 10:20 You have one of the best chairmen and CEOs in world football. Is this the perfect [management and ownership] team? 11:25 We've had in the EPL before the likes of Thomas Tuchel, Jürgen Klopp, Daniel Farke, David Wagner - in terms of those sort of German managers, where are you positioned between them in terms of your philosophy? 12:41 [I'm guessing] you now just can't wait to get started - can't wait for the next month to go by for the EPL to kick off? *Questions for Tony Bloom:* 13:10 What made Fabian a standout candidate for you? 14:27 There's no guarantee with any appointment that you could have made this summer, but is it fair to say that this is a gamble? 14:56 There were clearly differences of opinion with RDZ which led to him departing. Did those conversations cause you to re-evaluate or re-analyze your model, or did it actually make you stronger in your belief about what you're doing here at Brighton? 15:42 Fabian said that he's quite open-minded about data - how important was that in your decision making? 16:22 Fabian talked about DNA. How important is the style of play? 16:55 We know you're very, very hands-on. How much of St. Pauli did you watch before saying "yep, this is our guy"? 17:21 [Rephrased] Are you targeting getting back into European places this season? 18:16 You have the unequivocal backing of the fans because of what you've done here, and in general I can't think of a player/manager signing you've gotten wrong. Any pressure with Fabian? 18:58 You love making history... What's your next bit of history after this? *Questions for Paul Barber:* 19:15 What can you expect in terms of incoming and outgoing [transfers]? 19:55 This club has had great success - that means you've got a lot of other clubs wanting your talent. What assurances have you had to give Fabian about keeping some of those? *Questions for David Weir:* 20:58 In terms of the new signing - very exciting. How long have you been tracking the player and - it's quite a sizable fee - what are you expecting in return?

come on brighton!

Let's go!

Fabian the GOAT he seems very smart Fabian

Sat through the entire video and no question from Tim of MillernTon... I don't know how to deal with that... best of luck for Fabi, I hope both teams will do well this season

Welcome Fabian!

UTA ❤

All Fab needs to do is get the players to understand and enjoy the way wants to play.

from Hamburg ❤🤍🤎 - good Luck annd great resuts in the Premier League for Brighton -

“DNA”. “Philosophy”. “Data-based”. Where do they build these robots?

Treat him well - he ist the best!

bin gespannt wie er sich dort machen wird. Alles gute🙌🏼

Definitely a different vibe. Unsure how this energy influences players in a highly competitive and mature league and proving his mettle. De Zerbi’s speeches were self-controlled and mainly rooted by fact-based opinions - which is appreciated.

Well done and welcome to a great club good luck together in the premier league get behind the boss up the seagulls

Willkommen

Florian Wirtz big Brother. Good luck

Any St Pauli Fans here?🤎♥️

The proof of the pudding is in the eating, he obviously ticks all the boxes now he just needs to go out and show us what he can do. No reason why we shouldn't be even better next season.

Sounds great just needs to sort out his hair 😂

John Cena's European cousin

Vielleicht erhöht der Wechsel unsere Chancen in der Liga zu bleiben, aber am besten einfach beide 🤝💙🤍❤️

Lloyd from Dumb and Dumber

Fabian Wirtzeler

This is mr Bean

Lloyd Christmas?

🤎🤍❤️

What have we done?

How can players take a manager with that haircut seriously?

Jim carey comes to mind dumb and dumber

A few weeks ago we FCSP fans were also promised a great future together. Don't believe him too much - our contract was extended a few weeks ago and then he negotiated behind the back with another club in the middle of the season planning!

Nice toupee

St. Pauli >>> Turkey >>> Brighton, by the looks of it.

Love him but that cut just ain't it man.

Hmm not sure not really selling it to me in first press conference daft hair cut looks like mr spock but Brighton never disappoint with there players and head coachers

See you next season my manager 😆

Judas !

He's a traitor and a poser.

Get lost Brighton

Crystal palace are best
