Recent seasons for Arsenal have followed an all-too predictable pattern, and Arsène Wenger needs to be prepared for every eventuality this term. Thom Gibbs provides him with some pre-written soundbites, for when the inevitable happens.

August 29th 2011

Toothless back-to-back defeats to Liverpool and Manchester United prompt talk that Arsenal will do well to finish in a Europa League spot by the end of the season:

Quote "We need the fans to be behind us. We are a young team in transition and we are not finished yet. This is why I have instructed my players to never finish a passing move. We play the game in the correct way: without shots."

September 9th 2011
Arsenal have a chance to get their season back on track against recently-promoted Swansea, much lauded for their attractive passing game:

Quote "We know they play the game the right way, it is a challenge, but we have mental toughness, character, strength and belief. If that does not work we have Squillaci."

September 10th 2011

Swansea win 2-0. Brendan Rogers understandably celebrates the biggest victory of his career with his fans:

Quote "I thought that he was disrespectful. You have to think of the pitch. Brogues cut it up terribly."

October 23rd 2011
Stoke City are the visitors to the Emirates and battle to a gutsy 1-0 win, outmuscling Arsenal all over the pitch and inflincinting a nasty injury on Theo Walcott from which he will never fully recover:

Quote "We all know this team, we know they can only cheat us. They are cowards, a rugby team. And not even a good one. We live in a very unfair world. Please excuse me, I need to be alone and sit cross-legged in the centre circle."

November 20th 2011
An excitable Dirk Kuyt forces a Sparta Rotterdam shirt over captain Robin van Persie's torso during an international break, prompting speculation that he is pining for a move to his beloved hometown club:

Quote "Robin is still an Arsenal player and 100% dedicated to this club.... He will stay.... We hope he will stay... It is not decided... We don't want him to leave... I'd like to thank Robin for his contribution and wish him all the best."

January 3rd 2012
Arsenal are linked with a prodigous winger from Southampton's under-9s team:

Quote "We are looking, yes. I am not afraid to spend money, just not on average players. Only very attack-minded defenders and children. They are our future."

January 28th 2012
Wenger is asked if he plans to sign any proven Premier League defenders during this window:

Quote "No."

March 1st 2012
Arsenal are still fighting on three fronts for trophies, can they win any?

Quote "I think, yes. The treble is on. And when this Financial Fair Play league kicks off we will have a great chance in that too. I have an economics degree."

March 9th 2012
Arsenal are knocked out of the Champions League round of 16 by Barcelona, the FA Cup fourth round by Stoke, and trail Manchester United in the league by 30 points:

Quote "We are young team in transition. We need the fans to be behind us. We have been unlucky with injuries. We will be stronger next year."

WENGER REG ROVERS:

Arsène Wenger has shown his anger with his Arsenal squad by attributing Saturday’s defeat to Blackburn Rovers to “a lack of concentration, a lack of communication and a lack of co-ordination”.

He also accused his team of not having enough “individual urgency” over their current plight.

The Arsenal manager said that such were the “huge frustrations” of his side’s desperate form following the 4-3 loss at Ewood Park — their third loss in five Premier League games – that the club’s whole season now depended “on how well we respond to this disappointment and how quickly we can cut out the mistakes”.

“When you score an own goal, you have to look at yourself,” he said. “It is never completely out of your reach where you have no chance at all. All the rest, you have to look at yourself.”

Wenger admitted that with two new defenders, Per Mertesacker and Andre Santos, in the back line, it would take time for his team to gel and that his players needed to work more on the training ground.

“I believe there is a little question of time, timing,” he said. “Andre Santos and Per Mertesacker are new, but they were not especially guilty on the goals. But maybe as a unit we need more time to work.”

Despite Arsenal’s difficult summer and opening to the campaign, Wenger said he remained confident that his squad can still perform well. “We have had a bad start but I believe we can bounce back and be very strong this season,” he said.
