Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta has blamed himself as the London club seems to have surrendered the Premier League title to Manchester City on Sunday.

Arsenal fans saw their aspiration come to an end after losing 3-0 to Brighton at the Emirates Stadium.

Goals from Julian Enciso, Denis Undav, and a stoppage-time strike from Pervis Estupinan were enough to earn the Seagulls a momentous win at the Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal's defeat all but dented their hopes of seeing off Man City in the title race, with the reigning champions enjoying a four-point lead at the top with a game to play.

Speaking after the demolition by the Seagulls, Arteta appeared to take full responsibility for his side's surrender in their Premier League title bid.

"I hate the feeling of letting people down when they're really expecting something. That's the biggest regret I have today," he told Sky Sports.
