"The Premier League has to find a rule because that was not football what Arsenal did today. Have you seen a goalkeeper go down three times in one game? I think that says enough."
"In the second half we had two, three chances good headers, good crossers. We didn't finish. It was the only thing we missed today. We created a lot of chances. They had one shot on goal. Overall good performance, really good effort from my team."
"I'm really fan of how our fans supported us. In the end, everyone has to judge their own decision but I'm sure you don't like to watch these football games. I made my point and I think it's a fair point because in the end football fans want to see football games and not a time of waste."
Brighton lost 1-0 to Arsenal on Wednesday, with manager Fabian Hurzeler expressing frustration over Arsenal's time-wasting tactics throughout the match. Hurzeler highlighted Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya going down three times as evidence of deliberate delays. Despite creating numerous chances and forcing Arsenal into a defensive posture, Brighton failed to convert their opportunities, including an early chance when Raya made an error. Hurzeler praised his team's performance and effort, noting they created significantly more chances than Arsenal's single shot on goal. He called for Premier League intervention, requesting added game time and additional yellow cards to address time-wasting behavior, emphasizing that football fans deserve to watch actual football rather than time-wasting displays.
