Steele, Caicedo and Estupinan in this week's selections.
Jason Steele
Steele by name steel by nature. My goodness, Jason Steele showed exactly what he was made of during Sunday's 3-0 win at Arsenal. I thought there were moments in the game where he overplayed and was inches from conceding a goal because of the risks he was prepared to take. This performance was a far cry from the game against Everton where Steele was on the end of a drubbing and conceded five goals. A week later he was facing the title challengers and running rings around them. Quite apart from Steele displaying just how good he is with his feet, he more than played his part in keeping Arsenal at bay with his hands and produced a number of important saves. This was an extraordinary performance by Brighton in extraordinary circumstances, and Steele was at the very heart of it.
Pervis Estupinan
His goal was the icing on the cake and his team's performance blew everybody away. What a display of controlled football by Brighton at Arsenal, who, until this fixture, still had hopes of lifting the title. It might still be mathematically possible but it won't on Sunday if Manchester City beat Chelsea. Brighton didn't just look like the home side, they played like the home side and eventually took their hosts apart. I don't think I've seen a more comprehensive display against a team who have dominated the league for the best part of the season for some considerable time. Pervis Estupinan was outstanding and hardly gave Bukayo Saka a kick. Brighton now go above Tottenham with two games in hand and are favourites to land a place in the Europa Conference League.
Moises Caicedo (Brighton)
Manchester City beat Arsenal at Emirates Stadium but they didn't take them apart like Brighton did. The Seagulls rolled up in north London and left with Arsenal's title dreams in tatters. There can't be anyone who is seriously expecting Erling Haaland, Ilkay Gundogan, Kevin de Bruyne and the Manchester City bandwagon to blow this now. Arsenal wanted to buy Brighton's Moises Caicedo and after this performance against the Gunners I can see why. Following his encounter with Gabriel Martinelli you could see this is a player from the old school and he's going places. They made two bids for the Ecuador international this season and it caused a terrible fuss. Brighton refused the offers and they were sizable. The player, naturally upset, took some time to get over the disappointment but to his credit settled his differences with the Seagulls and continued to produce outstanding performances, notwithstanding this extraordinary trouncing of the Gunners on their own turf.
