Brighton suffocating Arsenal with their press.

Guess what guys, Brighton has exposed Arsenal and every other clubs has seen the pattern. Arsenal will struggle just like liverpoo did at the middle of last season!

Crazy pressing. Arsenal were rattled. Why didn't Arsenal go with long balls.

Constant pressing ans physical dominance, 2 important things to beat arsenal

This is not even pressing Just keep moving to where they are passing They didn’t waste lot of energy running I hope teams are seeing this and not been stubborn not to play like this

pep actually set the blueprint in that fa cup final but not one manager tried to use it but i am happy hurzeler used it to suffocate them

Brighton is one of the most difficult teams to face, my shock and surprise is how they are doing it even after selling most of their players

During Amorim’s time we played Arsenal like this last season… and created plenty chances but we don’t have prolific strikers and wingers… But now we struggle to keep high intensity in games now

Omooo. The ball barely left Arsenal's own half.🤡🤡

Arsenal scored 18 goals from corners last season and won 10 matches by one goal Stop giving away corners. Keep the ball on the ground .press like demons They dont have thr attack to win P.l

The thing is that not many teams or players can do this as a team, everyone needs to press and synchronize moving together otherwise those pressing on top will be exhausted

Nah this is crazy, kudos to brighton

It needs lot of energy to pressing in whole games

Bryton players were everywhere

This kind of football came as a shock😂What they are use to is, when they are attacking with the ball, teams do backs down to defend not the opposite of aggressive marking, cause when teams seat back to defend that's when they move the ball around freely till they find an opener

Pressing and counter pressing Staying competitive in your duels, don’t lose it First ball, second ball, be there to win it Keep the ball moving quickly with urgency Defend your set pieces strongly

This was Carrick ball last season. But what happened? He is trying to accommodate old players back into his winning team

The Brighton scouts definitely getting raises.

Pep was the first manager to expose this Press them hard and they launch the ball out easy shit

Every rival fan waiting to see Manchester united lose this game to Fulham after Chelsea and arsenal misfortune but I tell you this, we are winning this with a minimum of 2 goals, SESKO scoring and Bruno getting his second assist GGMU ✌️🔥

This happens because your DM is limited. If Partey was in this midfield, this sort of game will be a whole lot different. The game required a player who could be calm under pressure, beat two players and open up the field. The game also needed runners, Gyökeres and Madueke should have started, stayed high up providing the runs off the ball. The tactics shows that Arteta is still very naive and lacks the tactical flexibility of elite managers....

To play Arsenal and play them well you basically need midfielders and attackers that has lots of legs to run

Gaffer @FLK1072

Guimaraes is so overrated.

Sometimes you just need to go long.

Every touch from an Arsenal player = a Brighton player coming right after them/the ball. Relentless. No hanging back in passing lanes. No contain. ⚽️ Just pressure at the ball every time!

You can also see the frustration on their faces cause that's the only thing they know how to do, aside that, arsenal can't play shit attacking wise And Thank God for brighton for exposing that It's now left for other teams to work on that style of play

@waxzyy_ The kind of press I expected from Xabi Alonso’s football

Dem don expose arsenal😭😂😂😂😩let this break finish first The tears will over flow

This isn’t just a loss for Arsenal this is the beginning of Arsenal’s downfall this season thanks to Fabian Hürzeler Arteata now has a lot of work to do he will have to find another solution else every other team that follows this pattern will can win Arsenal.

To beat Arsenal: flood the mid, play a high press, narrow the field, no stretching the pitch through wingers and shoot from far. Wait and see every other team use the tact. Arsenal lacks dribblers and they always want to play from behind, dont know why teams never realised

I think that's a match made in heaven... or hell, depending on who's enjoying the struggle 😂

Calafiori was a ghost

Billion dollar players have no technical abilities Lmao

United coaches and players will look at this and say nah
