Defiant Wenger won't be quitting Arsenal

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger may have been embarrassed by the 8-2 defeat against Manchester United but has no intention of quitting as Gunners manager. This result was the Frenchman's biggest Premier League defeat and it hurt.

"You feel humiliated when you concede eight goals," he told Sky Sports 1.

"It was a terrible day for us, it was a combination of an under-strength team and weakness.

"We collapsed physically in the second half."

Asked if he might think about resigning during the upcoming international break, he was initially evasive, saying: "I believe we have a break before the next game."

He then ruled out the possibility, adding: "No, not at all."

"I know that in England when you lose a game signings are always the solution," he added.

"We had eight players out today. Anybody would suffer with eight players missing."
