Glenn Murray has been a revelation for Brighton

Brighton's counter-attacking - through the middle - is thrilling to watch

Be it the little Colombian wizard in Jose Izquierdo or the direct and speedy Anthony Knockhaert, Chris Hughton has got his side playing some incredible counter-attacking through the wings and none of that would've been possible without the main man up top in Glenn Murray.

At 34 years, he's one of the veteran strikers in the Premier League and the way he handled Arsenal's rather anxious defence today was a masterclass in how teams ought to take on the North Londoners.

Holding up the ball, using his strength and then passing it on to rushing teammates to create opportunities untied the Arsenal defence and worked like a charm.
