SOUNDBITE: (English) Arsene Wenger, Arsenal manager:

"I think that the essential (thing) is that it was an accident and he will be out for (at least) six weeks. It is a blow for him and for us. And from now on you want to get him to recover as quickly as possible. And prepare for the rest of the season."

Q. Have you spoken to Jack (Wilshere)? How has he taken it?

"You can only be very down in a situation like that - especially in the first few days. He is in a boot (cast) and he has gone away a few days to get a little bit away from trouble and disappointment and think about something else."
"It's the quarter-final of the FA Cup and we want to do well. We want to qualify (for the next round) and to win. And that's the best to prepare for the other games."
