Read our privacy policy Manager Arsene Wenger felt his players “hit the wall” in their back-to-back defeats over the past week but has challenged them to produce a response against struggling QPR tomorrow. The Gunners had impressed before the international break but then slumped to a 1-0 defeat at Norwich last Saturday which left them 10 points behind Barclays Premier League leaders Chelsea before putting on another lacklustre display against Schalke to lose top spot in Champions League Group B. "Jenkinson has done very well, but sometimes we are a bit short in that position because Carl always has to play every single game, so we are happy to have 'Bac' available again and his experience is important as well," Wenger said. "When we face teams like QPR and Norwich they seem to put in a lot of effort and make it really hard for us, but we have to bounce back."
