This singular player, described as the team’s lone warrior, causes anxiety among opposing defenders whenever in possession of the ball. Ahead of Brighton’s clash with Arsenal, De Zerbi acknowledges this unique threat that haunts his thoughts.
Despite Brighton securing a 1-0 victory against Marseille with Joao Pedro’s late goal, midfielder Billy Gilmour is already focusing on the upcoming Arsenal match at the Emirates on Sunday. Gilmour, enjoying a remarkable run of form, expresses his team’s delight over the three points gained against Marseille and shifts attention to the challenge posed by Arsenal. He recognizes Arsenal’s strength, highlighting recent arrivals like Declan Rice and Kai Havertz, and is confident about facing such formidable opponents.
In an interview with TNT Sports, Gilmour emphasizes the team’s collective effort and determination to succeed in both the Europa League and the Premier League.

Gilmour intends to make a meaningful contribution on the field, highlighting the challenges faced in previous results.

The team’s clear objective is to establish a notable presence in both the Europa League and the Premier League, showcasing resilience and determination on multiple fronts. With ambitions to build a name for themselves, Brighton aims to prove their capability and success in various competitions.
