Towering Verbruggen, Hurzeler on attacking decisions and talks with Japan

Bart Verbruggen put in a towering display when needed at Selhurst Park.

And he spoke to The Argus before rushing off to join up with the Holland national squad.

How to put the goalkeeper’s performance into perspective was one of the conundrums in terms of covering [Albion](https://www.theargus.co.uk/sport/albion/?ref=au)’s 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace.

So give him the credit he deserved while not making it appear Palace were the better side or the Seagulls were hanging on.

You can hear what he had to say about his own saves and the work going on in front of him as a second successive clean sheet was secured.

We also had a one-to-one with Fabian Hurzeler and asked him whether his side, while solid at the back, lacked a bit of quality in the final third at times.

Fair to say he did not quite agree.

And we bring you his update on Kaoru Mitoma as Albion and the Japanese FA work together to bring the star winger back to fitness.

It was a hectic Sunday as men’s under-21s and the WSL squad also tackled matches.

And it turned into an unbeaten Sunday – but with thoughts on more points which could have been picked up.
