Petr Cech: Arsenal must learn to win ugly

Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech says they must learn to win "ugly".

Cech moved to the Emirates in the summer from Chelsea, where under Jose Mourinho, his team were happy to grind out victories.

He told Sky Sports: "Sometimes we need to be uglier on the pitch.

"Sometimes you need to make sure that, no matter how you do it, you win the games.

"Every team needs people who guide you through the difficult moments and with the experience I have and with the experience other players have - Per [Mertesacker] won the World Cup, Mesut [Ozil] the same, the guys from the Spanish team know what it is to win big trophies - we have a good balance, together we just need to find the right time and the right way."
