"I will never be that kind of manager who tries to win in that way. I love the effort from my boys, I loved how they played football. I think there was only one team who tried to play football today and therefore I'm proud of how they did it."
"In the end we have to make the limits, or the Premier League has to make the limits. Where will this go in the future? That's my question, where will this go? Like, at one point, one game you play 60 minutes, and then when you play against Arsenal only 50 minutes, then it's ten minutes difference, so is this for what the supporters are paying for?"
Arsenal secured a 1-0 victory over Brighton, moving seven points clear at the top of the Premier League. Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler complained extensively about Arsenal's time-wasting tactics, raising concerns with the fourth official and confronting Arsenal players during the match. He criticized goalkeeper David Raya for going down and calling for treatment multiple times. Hurzeler expressed frustration that only Arsenal appeared interested in playing football, questioning the fairness of matches where effective time-wasting reduces actual playing time. He called for the Premier League to establish stricter rules on time-wasting, arguing that supporters deserve consistent match lengths and questioning the value they receive when games effectively last significantly different durations.
