Albion’s long unbeaten home run is over after defeat by Arsenal.
Brian Owen looks back at the 3-0 reverse in a game which was controversial, then comfortable for the leaders.
He gives some insight into the press conference afterwards with Roberto De Zerbi.

And, from a fitting location, he reflects that Arsenal got on their bikes while Albion attacked with the brake on at times.
