Arsenal midfielder Joe Willock is happy playing for interim coach Freddie Ljungberg.

The Swede, appointed in the wake of Unai Emery's sacking on Friday, started life as Arsenal boss with a 2-2 draw at Norwich City on Sunday afternoon.

Willock said Ljungberg has the full confidence of the squad for as long as he is at the helm.

"To be honest, we know collectively that we need to improve, whoever the manager," he said.

"Freddie is a brilliant manager. We believe in him and we're working hard to try and improve.

"He said the most important thing was to play with happiness, to get the pride in the badge back and to work to win.

"Every day in training we're trying to get that competitiveness back. I feel like [our luck] is going to turn in one game, and we can push on from there. It's coming, hopefully.

"Friday is in the past now. Emery was a very good man, a very good manager."
