Former Newcastle United star Alan Shearer has named Brighton as Arsenal’s major rivals for the Premier League crown.
Just five points separate the Gunners and the Seagulls as we approach the international break in November.
Additionally, with their 3-0 triumph at the Amex, they are the sole club to defeat Mikel Arteta’s side thus far in the season.
After Manchester City’s 3-1 loss to Nottingham Forest, their third straight loss, Brighton moved ahead of them.
If Liverpool are in transition, then Brighton could be Arsenal’s biggest title rival this season, Shearer told Betfair. Chelsea, it’s the same. Concerning those football clubs, they are far from done.
