Sheffield United boss Paul Heckinghbottom admits they couldn't compete with Arsenal today.

The Gunnners ranout 5-0 winners.

Heckingbottom said: "I think the first half to the second half was chalk and cheese.

"Although Arsenal had a lot of the ball in the first half, Wes [Fotheringham] only had one save to make. Second half the goals were really poor.

"They out-fought us as well as out-played us in the second half. That's what good teams do, they have the physicality as well.

"We know we are down to the bare bones, but the boys getting the opportunity need to grasp it. This is the level we're at.

"We've worked so hard to get here, no-one will take it easy on us. But is fair to say Arsenal away won't define our season."
