It's a shame he'll miss the season with us, which sounds worse than it is given we have less than 10 days left.
I'm trying to take positivity in the fact he is not immediately being ruled out of the World Cup. Had the injury been really serious, they would have ruled that out already.
Do we think this is the right call?
It might be recency bias, but I thought he might have been in contention. The December to February form does not help him, but we are still up there with Bournemouth and Brentford.
I'm not saying he should have been, but I thought it might make an interesting discussion.
The full list has not been revealed yet, so it remains to be seen if any other BHAFC players will make the cut.
This will be cut down to 26 players at a later date.
Fabian Hurzeler has confirmed that Brighton & Hove Albion brought an MMA fighter to training to help the club trial new techniques for defending set pieces.
Speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live earlier this week, 21-year-old Brighton midfielder Jack Hinshelwood praised the head coach’s innovative coaching techniques and revealed that an MMA fighter had been brought to a training session.
In a press conference before their away game against Newcastle United on Saturday, Hurzeler provided more context to Hinshelwood’s comments, revealing that the fighter had been brought to a training session a “couple of months ago” to help the side develop its physical edge.
“We brought him in because we’ve spoken a lot about set-pieces, blocking, and new trends in the Premier League,” he said. “We are trying to adapt to it because I don’t want this club to always be known as a club that is nice.
“In certain moments, you have to be quite resilient in personal duels. There are different ways of using your body and skills to win one-v-one duels, especially in set-pieces, and an MMA fighter always has one-v-one duels. Their job is to find a way to beat their opponent and we love getting ideas from other sports.
“We got some ideas from it which have been helpful for us as a team. As a club, we have never been known as being dominant in set-pieces or recruiting only for set-pieces, so we need to find ways to be innovative.
“We don’t want to be beaten easily when we face taller teams. We might not be that physical regarding our height, but there are always ways you can defend and attack in these one-on-one duels. This is why we’re trying to use different techniques from MMA as well.”
