Wenger wants instant to return to form after Chelsea 'accident'

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has challenged his side to quickly get their Barclays Premier League campaign back on course by beating Swansea to “repair the damage” from the “accident” of being thrashed 6-0 at Chelsea.

The Gunners boss – who cancelled Monday morning’s scheduled pre-match press conference – remains at a loss to explain just why his men imploded on Saturday lunchtime at Stamford Bridge in what turned out to be a nightmare 1,000th match in charge for the Frenchman.
