Set-piece debate intensifies as Brighton calls for clearer rules

Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler has called for clearer rules on time-wasting at set-pieces, criticizing Arsenal for taking over a minute to take corners ahead of their Wednesday clash. His comments follow remarks from Arne Slot, who described the Premier League as less of a 'joy' to watch due to its reliance on set-pieces.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola partially agreed with Slot's assessment, noting that while teams must adapt to such tactics, he acknowledged the growing concern. Arsenal faces scrutiny with their 16 goals from corners this season equaling a Premier League record.
