To be fair, Brighton were top for a day.
They'd still be up there, if they'd taken advantage of Rice being sent off and grabbed all three points at Arsenal. The draw was almost a disappointment, given that BHA have won 3 of their 4 previous matches there.
(In contrast, Leicester City won at Arsenal in October 2020, on a Vardy goal in the 80' , but that was during the COVID season and there were no Gunner Gooners in the stand.
The last time the Foxes won against an Arsenal home crowd was, research showed, 8 September 1973. Peter Shilton in goal, Alan Birchenall in midfield, Lenny Glover and Mike Stringellow scoring the goals.
So 3-1-1 at Arsenal this decade still looks pretty impressive, AFAICT.)
