THE FUSE

"I think there was only one team that tried to play football today... I will never be that kind of manager who tries to win in that way. I want to do well. I want my players to keep improving, keep playing football on the pitch," Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler fumed after the final whistle. The Seagulls manager was left exasperated by the tactical conduct of the league leaders, claiming that his side were the only team interested in playing a fair game as the clock was drained by the visitors.
