Wenger: I won't quit Arsenal
Despite Arsenal crashing to a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool at the Emirates, manager Arsene Wenger has rubbished the idea of quitting.
Liverpool recorded their first away win over Arsenal since 2000 to heap more misery on the Gunners - who saw Emmanuel Frimpong sent off and lost centre-back Laurent Koscielny to injury in a 2-0 defeat at the Emirates Stadium.Samir Nasri, who has been linked with a move to Manchester City, impressed for the Gunners but the home side's luck was out after Aaron Ramsey's own goal and a last-minute strike from substitute Luis Suarez handed the visitors victory.
After the loss, the crowd at the Emirates grew mutinous, but Wenger has refused to entertain the notion of quitting.
"There is no chance of that happening, I like to keep a sense of perspective," Wenger said, according to reports in the Guardian.
"It is still the start of the season and we have had a couple of disappointing results, that's all. I don't feel under any more pressure than usual. We have an important week coming up and this is a time to stick together."
Wenger now has half his first-choice team out because of suspension or injury, and must regroup his squad for next week's crucial Champions League play-off second leg in Udinese and the small matter of a trip to Manchester United.
