Paul Pogba admits he made a mistake giving away a penalty in the 1-0 loss to Arsenal on Sunday.

The Frenchman's poor challenge on Hector Bellerin allowed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to convert from the penalty spot.

"My mistake, I shouldn't do that," said Pogba. "I have to be better in the box defensively. When you run forward and back, a player runs behind you."

"When you get in the box, you have to be… not more clever – in French, the word is lucid. I don't know the word in English but I have to be fresher in the box, on my feet.

"Details made us lose the game and we have to be better. We have to do better with the ball because we weren't dangerous with the ball today.

"We didn't create chances, as we should, and we didn't win at home. That's what we need to do. We need to win at home, you know?"
