Ex-Arsenal captain Cesc Fàbregas admits he could not bear watching his former side fall to pieces against Manchester United in their 8-2 mauling last week.
Fàbregas, who left Arsenal for boyhood club Barcelona during the summer transfer window, saw the Gunners concede eight goals in a game for the first time in over 100 years, as United ran riot at Old Trafford.
Fàbregas told El Mundo Deportivo: "I watched the match against Manchester United on television and it was difficult.
"I suffered during this match and especially because of the enormous rivalry between the clubs.
"But I am convinced that the squad will improve for the next matches."
