Arsenal full-back Gael Clichy wants his team-mates to improve their 'focus and communication' in matches. "When we conceded late goals, it was not so much that the other teams were better than us, more of a lack of focus and communication," he told the club's official website.

"The boss has asked us to talk and communicate more on the pitch, which is what we did against Portsmouth and we got the clean sheet.

"We all played as a unit against Portsmouth, and we have to use this game as an example for the team and if we play like this, with the players we have, we can still do things."
