Fabian Hurzeler has advised his Brighton players to "stay humble" after their "special win" over Arsenal in the Premier League.
The Seagulls defeated the reigning champions 3-0 on Saturday, with a towering header from Chema Andres on his first league start following stunning strikes from Pascal Gross and Charalampos Kostoulas.
Brighton have now won at home against the reigning Premier League champions in each of the last three seasons, also beating Manchester City in 2024-25 and Liverpool in 2025-26.
Hurzeler's side are the highest goalscorers in the Premier League this season, with their 16 goals the most by a side in their first five games since City in 2022-23 (19).
And it was a dominant display from the Seagulls, who won possession in the final third nine times in this match, the most by a team against Arsenal in a Premier League game since December 2023 (Liverpool, nine).
Hurzeler expressed his joy after a stunning display from his team, but knows they must maintain their momentum after the international break.
"It was a special win. Not only because we played the best team in England but because of the performance. I am really proud of my team," Hurzeler told BBC Match of the Day.

"It's always important to enjoy these moments. We were horrible to play against.
"Intensity, intensity, winning the personal duels – we have to have the belief to compete with the best teams in the league.
"My players really trust each other on the pitch. If one player is out, then another can replace him.
"Overall, we wanted to be really good in every phase. We needed to be at the highest level. We go game by game. After the international break, we have a lot of games.
"After wins like this, we have to stay humble and understand why we had this win. We have to keep on going."
