Arsenal fell to their first Premier League loss of the season, leaving the race for the top spot considerably tighter. The Gunners had been tied with Manchester City after four wins, but a 3-0 defeat to Brighton on Saturday provided City with a chance to capitalize. Manchester City continued their perfect start with a 5-3 win over Sunderland on Sunday, securing the top spot with 15 points from five matches.
Arsenal currently sit second on 12 points, while Brighton's win over Arsenal has put them in third place with 10 points. This puts Arsenal three points behind City, with Brighton just two points behind. Despite the setback, Arsenal's early momentum remains intact and the focus now lies on how they respond after the international break.
