Gallas: We Will Persevere
Arsene Wenger's side have had an inconsistent start to the season and have lost to the likes of Fulham and Hull City, while Wednesday’s 4-4 draw with North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur was a body blow after the Gunners conceded two goals in the last two minutes.
“We know we should have taken all three points on Wednesday night but it did not happen,” he told the club's official website. “I know it doesn't feel like it but we got a draw. It was the minimum we deserved.
“But we cannot dwell on one game. We have to stay focussed on what is ahead of us and not what is behind. We are a tight-knit group working together with belief and desire to challenge for trophies. We can do it.
“That starts tomorrow at Stoke. Unfortunately a scan has revealed that I have pulled my hamstring, so sadly, I won't be involved but the boys are determined to come back with three points.
“We showed our patience, commitment and skill against West Ham and we can do it again, one game at a time. We are in this race and want to stay in it and will give everything, that is the least our fans deserve. They were tremendous on Wednesday night and we want to repay their unwavering support.”
