Bukayo Saka says Arsenal's players must bounce back immediately after their home defeat to Manchester United.

In a see-sawing contest, the Premier League leaders were beaten 3-2 by United as Matheus Cunha struck three minutes before fulltime.

“I think we didn't show our best level for the full game, which is frustrating,” Saka said afterwards.

“It's such a big game with a lot riding on it. Obviously, the Emirates has been a place where we've been so strong this season.

“It's a tough loss to take, but we have to stick together. We go again next week; we'll try and get back to winning ways.

“In football, you can score, you can concede - it's your reaction after it. Obviously, we would have wanted to make it 2-0, but we didn't. Overall, we're just not too happy with the performance.”
