Summary
Bruno Guimaraes has acknowledged his difficult introduction to Arsenal's Premier League campaign, admitting the 3-0 defeat at Brighton fell far short of the club's standards. The Brazilian, in his first league start for the Gunners, was particularly frustrated by Arsenal's failure to close down Brighton's attackers, allowing Pascal Gross and Charalampos Kostoulas to finish with ease.
Guimaraes said the team must learn from the loss and improve before returning from the international break, though he remains confident in his adaptation to life at the club after his summer move from Newcastle.
