Today will be a major test for Arsenal and I have the feeling that Arsenal will not be able to win Brighton. They have won their last six matches in all competitions including their 4-0 victory over the Spanish side Villarreal during the pre-season matches. If they can win Manchester United, like they always do, then Arsenal will not require too much luck to win. However, the new Arsenal team will fight hard to win this match because they are focused on the title which is a wise thing to do as a top team that have not won it for a long time now.
it was a very tough one on us today but even when it was tough we played with full control and even had seven shots on target it was a walk-through game for us and we have supposed to have learned from this, d, rice red card exposed us to the equalizing goal and even at first I was not satisfied with the performance, what I expected was that after scoring the first goal we should have scored another one then that way we going to be able to play on a safer side. the fact we are better than Manchester United gives us the privilege to be able to win them. and it is not as if we lost the game but drew, am very sure we are going to meet again we are going to bounce back very soon, we are always learning from every mistake but i just wished we were able to actually defeat Brighton because of this now Manchester united fan will think we are mate whereby we are not on the same level. the game ended draw and their is nothing that will change our mind from archiving our goal.
Based on how Arsenal have been performing in their last two matches, I know that it wouldn't be easy for Arsenal to beat Brighton despite it being a home game for Arsenal. In today's match, Brighton really impressed me with their performance. They took control of the pitch from Arsenal; they were the team controlling the game. Since the time Arsenal's Rice received a red card, Brighton deserved to win the match, but they were just not lucky today. With this performance, if Brighton continues like this, they will likely become the new average team that could make it to the top four this season. Last season, it was Aston Villa; two seasons ago, it was Newcastle. Now, it's Brighton's turn again.
As for me, their win against Manchester United was not the reason I thought Arsenal would find it difficult to beat Brighton. It was because I watched their matches and saw how they were playing. Beating Manchester United was a normal thing that has happened often in the past few seasons. In recent seasons, Brighton seems to be better than Manchester United.
