Loss Premier League: Arsenal 0 - 3 Brighton And Hove Albion | Sunday 14th, May | KO: 16:30 BST | Sky Sports

Brighton conceded 5 at home to Dyche's Everton. They're still a dangerous team. But I think we should be fairly comfortable. They're not a physical side like Newcastle. They play football the 'right way' which should suit us.

Our record has not been greet against them since they gained promotion back in 2017. They've always made life difficult for us. Even the game we won was always a struggle. Think this season was the first time we beat them emphatically. No reason not to beat them at home especially as they'll be low on confidence. We beat them, we put them at risk of losing European football and they play out of their skin to get a result against City.





Think the lineup picks itself tbh except maybe Jorginho eps his place.



Prediction

Arsenal 2-0 Brighton

Maybe if you are a virgin and nowhere near having sex in the next few years. But most will remember this as our first title challenge in many years and we have progressed a lot with a young team.

Exactly this. It’s easy to forget the rest of the season because everything hasn’t been good the last few games. Particularly those 4 games we will remember forever. And it’s a frustrating way to go, throwing it away.

But we have been excellent for most of this season. Vieira says it’s a step forward from last season but it’s been a massive leap.

Brighton got the advantage, took it and rode the game out.

If our players werent motivated and pushing until the last minute, then you wouldnt see Brighton celebrating as they did at FT. Brighton knew the magnitude of that result, and what they were up against.

We tried our best and it wasnt enough... but we tried our best.

Undav just said De Zerbi was showing them a motivational video before the game from Michael Jordan to get over their defeat against Everton and be up for this game.
Maybe Arteta should use the video tactic he used against Newcastle in every game. Players seem incapable of motivating themselves.

But it’s clear to me that today Brighton were much more up for it than us.

Huge number of members Ive never seen before posting negative stuff today. Very odd.

For all the depressed Arsenal fans this evening, its worth remembering that the team has lost 0 and drawn 2 with the first choice 11 this season. We all know where the issues lie

It's also worth remembering that Brighton also had players missing, but managed to dominate possession and score 3 without reply.

Done well this season, but no need to make excuses for this awful performance.

This forum saw what Caicedo was saying today and what West Ham were saying today and they will still got to the Declan thread and w*nk themselves silly.

I honestly don’t think this fanbase deserves Caicedo. I hope he gets his dream move to Real Madrid.

A PR merchant like Declan Rice will fit in well here.

You see the vision.

Lets be honest even if we won 5-0 it would have meant jot.

We lost the league at Anfield when cruising, which then had a knock on effect against WH & Southampton.

Merchants and frauds all of them

 

[ptrcopp]

We we’re out played today. That hasn’t happened many times this season.

We played poorly though, which is the frustrating thing

You are like the nights watch in game of thrones; the poster who guards this forum from transfer merchant rumours

And now my watch begins

And now my watch begins.

Respectfully disagree bro.

I could see the pain on their faces at the end. It said it all to me.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Lol they outplayed us mate. They’ve been second highest in the league in xG, possession and chances created since De Zerbi took over.

This was always going to be a tough game against a very good side.

They outplayed us at the end maybe but overall was even just tow sides kicking the ball away.

But yeah Brighton are very brave very organised off the ball are intelligent no teams did that at Emirates apart from man city

 

[lomekian]

Yo sit down son, you talking ****.

Be honest about your dislike for Arteta, and stop parading as though you want what's best for the club.

Is it coincidence that you show up at our lowest moment? No it isnt, so stop with the BS.

I find putting the a-holes on ignore is so much less stressful

 

[Rex Stone]

If we sign Rice over Caicedo questions have to be asked…

 

[celestis]

Been injured for a good part of the season . Whatever they say , it takes longer to get to full sharpness. He'll be better next season .

 

[Lady_Gooner]

I started to realise when @Lady_Gooner would moan about it every game.

I knew it was going to cost us….

 

[BergMan]

Respectfully disagree bro.

I see that too. I know the players care. Bottom line is today we weren’t good enough.

 

[HighburyHigh]

2nd is still a fantastic season.

 

[BigPoppaPump]

If we sign Rice over Caicedo questions have to be asked…

What kind of questions? You thinking what I’m thinking?

 

[Genericmans]

We have everything. Youngest squad in the league pushing the champions who added Haaland. That’s incredible, our foundations are insane and our potential is limitless. I’m so happy.

We are only pushing because several key teams including city had a weak start/ season.

If all these teams start preforming like they should, then next year we will be lucky to push top 6 if more than half our starting eleven stays the same.
