    Reacting to Brighton's 3-0 win over Arsenal on Saturday and the hosts' gameplan, Maxim de Cuyper told BBC Radio Sussex: "Just fight when we don't have the ball and produce quality when we do have the ball.

    "That's what we try to do every game [bring intensity]. We don't succeed every game from the start, but if we do that we can make it difficult for a lot of the teams, even last year's champions.

    "It was a complete afternoon - stadium full, big opponent, three points at home. Just a perfect afternoon.

    "Everyone wants to do at least as much as last season and achieve Europe."

    Former Newcastle striker Alan Shearer on BBC Radio 5 Live: It should have been more, the chances Brighton created, they were that good. They absolutely battered Arsenal. How many times have we said that recently? From start to finish today Brighton were magnificent. Every single one of them played their part.

    "They were strong, they were fit, they went after Arsenal. They had no fear and it worked brilliantly for them, it should have been six or seven goals.

    "Every time they chased down the ball, they got it absolutely spot on. They did it as a team, they didn't do it individually. They thought we respect Arsenal but we're not going to give them any space to play. The organisation was great and that just doesn't happen on its own and you've got to give Fabian Hurzeler credit for that."
