Arsenal's win against Brighton was a nice one that kept me excited as a fan of the club. It was not like any sunny afternoon but one with good prospects. Brighton is a team that has been putting up a good fight against a lot of Premier League teams, and it was honourable for our team to get the win yesterday . Anyway, I cannot say the same for Chelsea fans yesterday . What a painful game. To be up with the lead by one goal and then lose the match. That is too bad. Our win against Brighton is a sign that we know how to win a game, and we are heading for the league trophy. The Blues cannot say the same. I love the banter, and when one of my obstacles in the league drops points.
The first few minutes of the game, especially in the first half, were a tug-of-war for who had more control of the game and who could convert any opportunity they could get. At first, it was Brighton who was doing a good job in this aspect, but when my man Odeegard said enough is enough, he took over it with a brilliant play of football, and that is not all he did. The man was all over the pitch, pulling the guns and even telling his teammates where to be. Odeegard was not the only man getting the job done for Arsenal; I have to give a shoutout to Declan Rice for how he held the midfield down. It was something like he did not let anything pass through him. The interesting part is like Brighton, where the player using the white chess pieces had to play first, then Arsenal, with the black pieces were the player gave counterattacks without stopping at all.
The reward came in for us after immense pressure on Brighton's defence. It was no stop for us all through, as we did not give up the opportunity to change at all. We knew we had to win and get the job done, and that is exactly what we did. Once again, my guy Odeegard graced us with the opener thanks to an assist from starboy wonder Bukayo Saka. It was a deadly combo from both players. What a play from our foremost knights, always giving the attacks. The goal became an opener for Brighton as they tried to put up a fight in the first half, but it was to no avail.
By the second half, in less than 60 minutes, another goal came in from Gutter. These boys are not playing. I admire how they are showing eagerness to claim this trophy, and hopefully, we will. The back and forth had reduced at this point, once it was a 2-goal lead, but that did not stop Brighton from doing their best to come back in the game. A couple of minutes down the line in the game, another goal was scored, but this time it was for Brighton. Thereby making the match end in 2-1. I was truly in a tug-of-war for this game, and that is why we love the game.
We are currently on 42 points, topping the Premier League standings, but Manchester City is coming in heavy just at our back with 40 points. Let's see how more games unravel. Hopefully, Manchester City drops more points, and we gain more.

GUNNERS for life, another hard fought victory 🙌 but as it is 3 points in the bag,that is what matters! nice update @samostically
I watched the match and i saw the wonderful performance of the gunners. What a delightful watch brosky, you guys could have thrashed them harder but then all win na win manchi…
Yes o. 3 points is all that matters!
Arsenal are currently the most in-form team in the Premier League. I just hope they can maintain this level until the end of the season, because City seem to have finally woken up, while Aston Villa, despite their terrible start, are currently unstoppable and are only 3 points from the top.
Yeah I hope so too. It’s usually from January, I get very scared. We okay Aston villa tomorrow. So let’s see.
Thanks for stopping by.

I do not like Arsenal as person, but then I expected an easy win from them seeing they are not facing a top 6 team. Arsenal always manages to win these kind of games.
You will love Arsenal o. Give me one reason why you don't like the best team in the world right now!
