Piers Morgan slams ‘lacklustre, spiritless and pathetic’ Arsenal as Brighton loss KOs title bid and admits ‘we choked’

PIERS MORGAN slammed Arsenal for a “lacklustre, dispassionate, mindless, pathetic performance” against Brighton on Sunday.

A 3-0 home defeat means Manchester City could be crowned Premier League champions this weekend.

After sitting top of the table for most of the season, City can win their fifth title in six seasons with a win over Chelsea on Sunday.

But Arsenal could even give City the title themselves with a defeat at Nottingham Forest a day earlier.

And Arsenal-mad Morgan wasn’t happy with what he saw in the 3-0 home loss to the Seagulls.

An exciting game was decided by three goals in the second half from Julio Enciso, Deniz Undav and Pervis Estupinan.

increase Twitter After the loss, Morgan fretted that the Gunners were “suffocating” after leading for most of the season.

He yelled, “Everywhere.

“Totally outplayed by a team who just lost 5-1 to Everton.”

“A horribly lackluster, dispassionate, mindless, pathetic performance that cements an inexplicably grim lead-up to a season that promised so much.”

“Conclusion: We are suffocated. #afc.”

In a bad-tempered encounter, Gabriel Martinelli flattened Kaoru Mitoma in the early stages but escaped without a yellow card.

Just minutes later, Moises defeated Caicedo Martinelli before slapping Mitoma’s hands.

Again, referee Andy Madley did not show a yellow card.

Martinelli was injured by the tackle and had to drop out. He later emerged with his left foot in a protective boot.
