Arsenal star Bukayo Saka has told Mikel Arteta the team are still fully behind him as struggles continue.
It comes amid a disastrous run of form in the Premier League for the Gunners which has left them five points above the relegation zone.
Out of 12 league matches, they have been defeated seven times that includes four home losses in a row.
There have reports that Arteta has lost the dressing room as pressure ramps up on the former Manchester City assistant.
But Saka has insisted the whole team are right behind him as they look to bounce back from their woes.
He said: ” Arsenal fans know that I always give my all for the club.
“When I’m on the pitch I’m always doing my best to make them happy and repay the faith that they’ve shown in me and all the love they’ve shown to me.
“As a team we’re working together on the pitch I can tell you that, being really honest we’re all working so hard and we all want to make this right.

“We just need to keep focus, keep going.
“These games we should be winning and I feel like when we get one win we’ll pick up a few and build momentum.
“Times are going to change we’ll start winning games 100 per cent.”
Saka has been one player that can hold his head high after performing well despite Arsenal’s run of losses.
The 19-year-old has been used in a variation of positions including either wing and also at left-back but he has revealed his preferred place.
He added: “I like playing on the wing, that’s where I’ve grown up playing really.
“But since I’ve come into play in the first team I’ve played in so many different positions that I’ve liked.
“I haven’t really played much in those positions and I’ve seen that I can play them I’m still excited to play in new positions and keep learning all the time.”
