The Gunners' woes were underlined by losing 4-3 at Blackburn on Saturday but Van Persie is still confident all is not lost. He told the club's website: "There is lots of time, but at some point you need to pick yourself up and prove what you are capable of. "We are not doing that at the moment and are not consistent enough. It just frustrates me, and it is happening too often. "Every time we start positively we just keep making the same mistakes and that is surprising. "Even before the game on Saturday I said to the boys, 'Today is a big, big day'. We have to get back-to-back wins, and we just cannot do that at the moment. "That is our aim for the next couple of games, we have to win them after each other. "We just need a couple of good weeks in the Premier League where we get a lot of points, and hopefully we can start next week against Bolton."
