Brighton and Hove Albion centre-back Lewis Dunk produced a heroic display as his side suffered late heartbreak in their 1-0 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday night, and his performance didn’t go unnoticed by Arsenal fans on Twitter.

For so long it looked as though the Seagulls were going to pick up a vital point in their Premier League survival bid – in a result that also would have helped the Gunners in their top-four bid – before they finally succumbed to Christian Eriksen’s 88th-minute winner.

Dunk certainly couldn’t have done any more in north London however, as the Seagulls skipper threw his body on the line time and time again for his team as Eriksen, Dele Alli, Son Heung-Min and Lucas Moura all tried to find the net.

Meanwhile, Arsenal’s defence has been inconsistent at times again this term – as shown by the 3-2 defeat against Crystal Palace on Sunday – with Shkodran Mustafi one of the players who seems to continually flatter to deceive and be the brunt of criticism from the Emirates Stadium faithful on social media.

Some Gunners supporters obviously feel that the heart of their backline is an area manager Unai Emery should look to strengthen during the close-season, with the fans below believing that the 6 ft 4 Brighton leader would be a good addition.

While one individual described him as being “light-years ahead of Mustafi”, another said “Arsenal should be all over Lewis Dunk this summer”.
