Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler has called on his players to respond positively ahead of tonight’s FA Cup clash against Chelsea.. Recall that Brighton goes into the tie after last week’s 7-0 thrashing by Nottingham Forest.. However, speaking with the club’s website, Hurzeler urged his team to raise the standard of their game against Chelsea.. “We were honest to each other that our standards were not high enough. We were not demanding enough from each other. We were not ruthless enough. Maybe we accepted a little bit the lack of intensity. We accepted that players don’t give 100% in training and therefore we said to each other we need to commit now..

It makes us better as a player and we will improve as a team.. “We can’t accept if anyone doesn’t commit fully to the club and doesn’t commit fully to the intensity. “If we have one bad game, analyse it and be honest to each other but don’t change the whole approach.Come back to the basic things and the basic things we can influence on the pitch is intensity. We missed this intensity in the last game.. “We were honest to each other but it is very important to stay calm. To not let yourself be defined by one game. There are reasons why we lost this game. We know the reasons and therefore it is about mention and emphasise these reasons but the next step is about carry on and work hard.. “Everything we say now is just phrases, just sentences. The truth is on the pitch. We have to work hard on the pitch.We have to show a reaction at our home stadium for our fans.Then we can be judged by the fans, then we can be judged by the public how we react.”
