Jack Hinshelwood hailed as Brighton leadership example | OneFootball

According to TheArgus.co.uk, Albion want Jack Hinshelwood to keep arriving in the danger area after his opportunist strike beat Bologna in their final friendly.

The attacking midfielder had pushed high before turning in a low ball across goal for the only strike, reminiscent of Glenn Murray’s 100th for the club, while Bologna appealed for offside. He later skied a clear chance, sending it towards the new 1901 Pub balcony.

Converted from a deeper role in February, the 21-year-old has compiled a decent scoring record that could grow further. He is regarded inside the club as an emerging leader.

Head coach Fabian Hurzeler has been impressed since the latter part of last season and sees Hinshelwood developing both as a player and as a personality. He views the youngster as stepping into a leadership role despite his age, which the squad need now.

Hurzeler points to the midfielder’s work without the ball, his energy and his habit of arriving in the box as constant threats. He also notes solid defensive work and running power, and says he is happy with him on and off the pitch.
