Arsenal midfielder Bruno Guimaraes has delivered a stinging assessment of his side's heavy defeat at Brighton, claiming the performance was not worthy of their status as the reigning champions. The Gunners saw their perfect start to the Premier League campaign go up in smoke at the Amex Stadium as Mikel Arteta’s men were comfortably beaten 3-0 by the Seagulls.

Arsenal could be set for a significant departure in the January transfer window as Noni Madueke attracts serious interest from two of Europe's heavyweights. The former Chelsea man has found opportunities hard to come by in North London this season, leading to speculation that his time at the Emirates Stadium could be reaching an early crossroads.

Brighton & Hove Albion head coach Fabian Hurzeler has heaped praise on veteran midfielder Pascal Gross, comparing the German maestro to a "fine wine" that only improves with age. The 35-year-old was the architect of a dominant performance as the Seagulls dismantled Arsenal in a statement Premier League victory.

Arsenal saw their flawless start to the Premier League season come to a crashing halt on Saturday afternoon as Brighton ran riot at the Amex Stadium. While the result was damaging enough for Mikel Arteta’s side, the afternoon could have ended even more sourly had Declan Rice been dismissed for a late moment of madness.
