Arsenal's 6-0 Chelsea defeat was an accident - Wenger

Arsenal Coach, Arsene Wenger, has stated that his side's 6-0 loss to Chelsea in the English Premier League (EPL) was accident.

The Frenchman - who failed to attend the post match interview on Saturday - told Arsenal TV the team has to repair the damage caused by the defeat and moved forward.

 Wenger said: "We just came out of two convincing results at Bayern Munich and at Tottenham with a very solid defensive performance, so you have to think that was an accident. How do you deal with the accident? You repair them, you repair the damage and you go for the next one.

"Of course it is back to basics. An accident has happened - that doesn't mean that you are not a good driver. It just means that we have played about 40 games this season and it's not what happened on Saturday that reflects the quality of this team."

Arsenal are up against Swansea Tuesday in the EPL. The London club have been boosted by news that Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Kieran Gibbs available to play after appealing against the red card shown to Gibbs on Saturday.
