Hurzeler’s Brighton second string did little to suggest they are any more than that

Fabian Hurzeler's rotated Brighton & Hove Albion side failed to impress after being held to a 0-0 draw away against FK Jablonec in the UEFA Conference League group phase on Thursday. Despite dominating with 72 percent possession and 26 shots, the visitors managed only four attempts on target. The result brought Brighton's six-match winning streak across all competitions to an end.

The article argues that fringe attackers including Matt O'Riley, Ibrahim Osman, and Georginio Rutter did not do enough to earn promotion to the Premier League starting lineup ahead of Sunday's match against Liverpool. At the back, goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen helped preserve Brighton's clean sheet after the defense grew ragged in the closing stages.
