- They (the players) looked afraid of the ball in the first half. Afraid to move. They just stood still. Then I think we did well for 20 minutes ... but of course it's hard to say when you've just lost at home, the Swede said at a press conference.

He says he still has what it takes to lead Arsenal.

- I love this football club and will do everything to help it in the best way. Then it's up to the club what it wants to do.

Ljungberg took over as temporary head coach when Unai Emery was fired a week ago. It was 2-2 in the first match, away to Norwich.

Arsenal are in tenth place in the Premier League, 24 points behind Liverpool's leading scorer.
