Tony Pulis criticised the behaviour of Arsenal's players and accused them of influencing the referee after Stoke City succumbed to a 1-0 defeat at the Emirates Stadium.

Stoke are now without a win in six Premier League games and are still 10 points from the 40-point marker that historically symbolises safety.

Confident

But with the majority of their remaining fixtures being against mid-table or bottom-half teams, Pulis is confident Stoke can get back to winning ways soon. He said: "Every manager is under pressure to keep their clubs in the Premier League and we are no different. "We have got most of the big clubs out of the way now so we need to pick points up. "It's difficult. You know you will have bad runs and good runs. You have got to make sure the players believe in themselves. "I know why we have struggled of late. We have rectified it today."
