Arsenal's win over Manchester United on Wednesday showed the Gunners' ability to score goals in different ways and their sheer will to win after a difficult spell, coach Mikel Arteta said.

Jurrien Timber and William Saliba scored in a 2-0 win, which was Arsenal's fourth in all competitions.

"We want to be very dangerous and very effective from every angle and in every phase of the game and we work for all this," he told reporters.

"We could have scored from open play like we did against West Ham, against Sporting, so the team really has that confidence that from every angle we have the mentality to cause a threat to the opposition and try to score," said Arteta first. , forwarded by KosovaPress.

Arsenal's win also came after leaders Liverpool dropped two points in a draw at Newcastle United, meaning Arsenal cut the gap to seven points.

Arteta insisted he did not let the result in the Liverpool game affect his approach to the Arsenal game, but said his side's response to early season setbacks showed a positive mindset.

"The will to win is there," he said. "We tried to do our best to do that. It's true that we went through a lot in that period, with the schedule and the position we played. It's about trying to do it afterwards. Today, now we won four games in a row - it doesn't matter, we have to go to Fulham and be better than them," he concluded.
