Arsene Wenger has implored his Arsenal players to tighten things up at the back in a bid to stop dropping crucial points.
The Gunners conceded a late goal against ten man Wigan Athletic on Wednesday night to deny them the chance to go equal on points with league leaders Manchester United and Manchester City and the Frenchman says things must get better at the back.
"We need to communicate much better. That's something we need to rectify," he said.
"Nobody is taking charge on the organisation side, there is no voice when the focus drops a little bit. You don't feel that anybody takes charge on alertness and we need to communicate much better than that."
Wenger hopes that his players are more focused when they take on Birmingham City at St Andrews on Saturday.
"We need to recover quickly and focus quickly again. It's down to us. The players are very frustrated after the Wigan game but they can be strong in their belief and think 'that will not happen again'," he added.
