Arsenal fans slaughter Gabriel for what he did in draw vs Brighton

Arsenal fans were furious with Gabriel Magalhaes after his involvement in Brighton’s equaliser during their 1-1 draw at the Emirates.

Mikel Arteta’s side dropped points for the first time in the Premier League this season despite taking the lead in the first half through Kai Havertz.

Joao Pedro scored a 58th-minute equaliser for the Seagulls, and Gunners fans felt that Gabriel could’ve done better with the situation.

The 26-year-old central defender had an opportunity to make a tackle after Lewis Dunk played a through ball into Arsenal’s box but ended up being pushed off the ball.

The Gunners were down to 10 men after Declan Rice received a controversial red card after appearing to kick the ball away to stop a quick free kick.

The draw continued both team’s undefeated starts to the 2024-25 Premier League campaign.

Arsenal fans felt Gabriel could have done better for Brighton’s goal

Even though Pedro scored a rebound after a David Raya save, Arsenal fans felt Gabriel could’ve been stronger and stood his ground in the build-up to the goal.

Fans claimed the gap between him and William Saliba cost them the goal, while others stated he was being “stupid defensively.”

No one can ever convince me that Gabriel is a good defender/player. Whenever Arsenal are asked to defend, he always has a mistake in him— US³ (@USTrequartista) August 31, 2024

Gabriel might have regressed back into his pre 2022 form. Might be back on fraudwatch soon. Too many mistakes.— ????‍☠️ (@observingfutbol) August 31, 2024

JOAO PEDRO! Deserves that goal, been very impressive again today. I feel both Saliba and Gabriel could’ve taken care of that situation better though????— Lyés (@LyesBouzidi10) August 31, 2024

Saliba and Gabriel are so bad.

They've been protected way too much by this defensive system.

As soon as they lose a bit of that midfield protection they panic.

They would never survive in our system.— Jaco™ (@JacoCats) August 31, 2024

New season and Gabriel is still being stupid defensively.

All you have to do is to slide in for a tackle and get this ball. If it was hurting your teammates like he do am simple Kwasia player— Kelewele Joint ???? (@Ankamagyimi___) August 31, 2024

The best CB’s itw Saliba and Gabriel parted like the Red Sea there… interesting observation.— ????‍☠️ (@FuadCadani) August 31, 2024

Poor defending— halfcast (@half_castFCB) August 31, 2024

Some pass from Dunk, made up for his mistake with that! Huge gap between Saliba and Gabriel mind— GCIIMessi (PixelPrintDesign) (@GCIIMessi) August 31, 2024

That was Gabriel's mistake.— Olumide (@TimiTaiwo16) August 31, 2024

Gabriel is gonna get the Ramsdale treatment

No room for mistakes in this team— Martin (@Swiller1988) August 31, 2024

That’s why I don’t like Gabriel, he makes silly mistakes really silly and stupid ones #ARSBHA— Wazza (@Wazzlion) August 31, 2024

This ref is a disgrace. What’s the point of even watching this game, I’m furious. A game we were deservedly leading is now probably lost, but Gabriel should’ve stopped it— ???? (@Flaminiesta) August 31, 2024
