Sagna: Arsenal must learn from Barcelona defeat

Bacary Sagna is urging his Arsenal team-mates to put defeat to Barcelona to one side and now concentrate on a domestic double of League and Cup success. "We can learn a lot from Barcelona - they kept playing as a team, kept passing the ball quite well. We have to think about the way they played and it must be an inspiration," the France international said.

"We have to be strong because we want to be successful. We have to fight for the team, for the fans and everyone.

"We want to bring something back to the Emirates and so we have to think about the next game.

"Everyone is still confident we can win something.

"The good point is we don't have time to think about what happened last night.

"We just want to train as hard as we can and give the maximum." Sagna feels Arsenal can use their Nou Camp defeat in a positive way when they head to Old Trafford for Saturday's late kick-off.

"We are ready to fight because we are even more frustrated after what happened last night and we want to give more," he said.

"It will be another big game on Saturday. We just want to go there and play our football."
