Brighton Manager Calls for Set‑Piece Time Rule

Brighton’s Fabian Hurzeler has demanded a clear rule on how much time is wasted at set‑pieces, citing Arsenal’s record‑setting 16 corner goals this season and the fact that the Gunners took over a minute to take a corner. The comments come ahead of Brighton’s clash with Arsenal on Wednesday.

Arne Slot said the Premier League has become less enjoyable because of the reliance on set‑pieces, while Man City’s Pep Guardiola agreed in part but said adaptation is part of the game. Team news: Erling Haaland will be assessed, Woltemade is doubtful for the Man United match, and other squad updates include Ayari, Maguire and Shaw.
