Arsenal fullback Sagna: I'm trying to relight fire

Arsenal fullback Bacary Sagna admits he's struggled to find his mojo this season.

The France international concedes he hasn't been at his best.

Asked what he felt he was doing wrong, Sagna said: "You don't focus 100 per cent on the pitch - you miss something to push forward. You need somebody [else] to defend even better. When you are not at your best at this level, you feel it straight away on the pitch.

"You need a bit of everything to turn it around. When you don't perform as you used to, when you have been injured for so long, you need your confidence back and I was a bit low recently.

"I am just looking forward. I am a professional so I know it can happen but not for too long because everyone is waiting for me to perform well and I am looking forward to do it."
