LONDON (Reuters) - Arsenal's season will not be defined by their thrashing at Liverpool but how they respond to the setback, starting with Wednesday's visit of Manchester United, manager Arsene Wenger said on Tuesday.

The Gunners' previously rock-solid defence was torn to shreds on Saturday, with Liverpool blasting four goals past them in a stunning opening 20 minutes before cruising to a 5-1 victory.
