Arteta on Arsenal's excellent win over Brighton
“I think the team showed a lot of determination, against a team that wants to take the ball off you and press you high.
"They go man-to-man a lot up the field, you have to be very, very clever to understand what you have to do in every moment, because you are always on that edge, that if you make a wrong step, they’re going to punish you.”
“I think it was a phenomenal performance with a great feeling as well because of what happened last season, and the demands that Brighton put on you,” he said.
“I think the team was outstanding today from the start to the end, and thankfully we deserved to win the game, and we won it.
