What the managers are saying

Chris Hughton (Brighton): “You look at pivotal moments in any season – one was getting our first win at the Amex, then our first away win and then our first win against a top-six team.“We’d found it difficult – we played Manchester City on the first day of the season and that was a very tough game, and Chelsea was a difficult game as well.“The Arsenal win was a fairly significant moment for us and one that we deserved.”Chris Hughton has fond memories of Arsenal’s last visit to the Amex2

Unai Emery (Arsenal):“Brighton is the same, a very tough match physically, very organised and, like with Burnley, a very good coach who is working very well.“It is a challenge and I respect those teams a lot because they also have good players. They decide to do a line-up with physical players with a lot of crosses for the strikers for heading in our box.“We need to defend very far in our box to defend better against that.”
