LONDON Brighton & Hove Albion's Fabian Hurzeler insisted he would stay "humble" after the English Premier League's youngest manager marked his debut with a 3-0 victory at Everton on Aug 17.
At 31 years old, he is the youngest permanent boss in Premier League history following his arrival from Bundesliga side St Pauli to replace Roberto de Zerbi in the close season.
The German is the first manager to be born after the Premier League started in 1992 and is seven years younger than Brighton midfielder James Milner.
Despite his tender years in comparison to his peers, Hurzeler made a flying start as 10-man Everton were brushed aside at Goodison Park.
Goals from Kaoru Mitoma, Danny Welbeck and Simon Adingra fired Brighton, while Everton were hampered by a red card to Ashley Young, who at 39 is the oldest player to be sent off in the Premier League.
"I'm very happy, it's a good start but nothing more and it's important to stay humble after this," Hurzeler insisted.
