"For me, it's always important that I'm very transparent with the players. I have a very good relationship with Carlos, Hurzeler told Sky Sports. We speak regularly, we are in touch. I always share my thoughts about his development and my thoughts about his performance. It's important to be very clear about what you expect from players on the pitch, off the pitch. And it's important to build relationships where you can criticise or give personal feedback they might not be happy about, but they understand the intention behind it."
"Carlos won't get better if he only gets compliments and claps from outside. I think he will get better if he has a safe environment, but also honest feedback where he knows what he needs to improve. That's where we try to support him and make him better."
"So much so that he was been substituted at half-time by manager Fabian Hurzeler in three games so far. Baleba looked to be back to his best last week as the Seagulls beat Newcastle at home and Hurzeler has warned the midfielder he can only improve if he ignores the noises from outside. As a result, Saturday's Premier League showdown between the Red Devils and Brighton is being billed as a transfer audition' for the Cameroon international."
Carlos Baleba has been substituted at half-time in three games under manager Fabian Hurzeler. Baleba returned to strong form as Brighton beat Newcastle at home. Hurzeler maintains regular, transparent communication with Baleba and shares direct feedback on development and performance. Hurzeler stresses clarity about on-pitch and off-pitch expectations and the importance of relationships that allow criticism and personal feedback with understood intention. Hurzeler believes Baleba needs a safe environment plus honest critique rather than external praise alone. The upcoming Premier League match against Manchester United is being framed as a transfer audition for the Cameroon international.
