[Times] After 7-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest, Fabian Hürzeler held a cigarette lighter to his tactics book, flicked the switch and burnt his failed game plans in front of the players. (www.thetimes.com)

Very impressive turnaround from Brighton and Hurzeler. Curious to see who comes out on top in tonight's rematch.

Hurzeler is really growing on me.

I mean... clearly they didn't work so why not

The man knows how to send a message, at least after initially getting the tactics completely wrong in the first place.

It should be noted that he was kind of forced to improvise as his regular midfield was unavailable and he went with a weird kind of 4-1-4-1. But it's still a powerful gesture. I'm sad they lost yesterday.
