Jack Wilshere insists Arsenal&rsquo;s promising season will not be allowed to fall apart following a home defeat to Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League &mdash; with the team ready to show just what they are capable at Crystal Palace on Saturday. <img alt="Jack Wilshere" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/oct/Jack-Wilshere_1.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 636px;" /> Jack Wilshere The Gunners had looked good value for a share of the spoils from the Group F encounter after recovering from a slow start &mdash; Henrikh Mkhitaryan put the Germans ahead &mdash; to level before the break through Olivier Giroud. Indeed, if a sublime 20-yard curling effort from Santi Cazorla had flown just a couple of inches lower instead of crashing off the angle, Arsenal may well have recorded a hard-earned victory. However, Arsene Wenger&rsquo;s side were left with the disappointing taste of defeat for only the second time this season when Robert Lewandowski &mdash; fortunate to still be on the pitch after earlier catching Laurent Koscielny with a stray elbow &mdash; converted following a clinical counter-attack in the 82nd minute. Napoli&rsquo;s victory over whipping-boys Marseille leaves three teams now locked on six points and Arsenal now face a tough trip to Dortmund in a fortnight, where another loss would put their qualification hopes for the knockout stages in serious jeopardy. <img alt="Olivier Giroud and Mesut Ozil" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/oct/Mesut-Ozil_2.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 310px;" /> Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud (right) and Mesut Ozil react after Borussia Dortmund scored their second goal at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday. Pic/AFP Wilshere, though, insists Wenger&rsquo;s men have the strength of character to pick themselves up and go again when the English Premier League leaders head to bottom club Crystal Palace for Saturday&rsquo;s lunchtime kick-off. Wilshere said: &ldquo;It is never nice to lose at home, but it is not the end of the world. We can&rsquo;t let this result affect us now, especially in the Premier League where we are on a great run. It will be tough away at Palace, they will fight for every ball and it will be a different game from Dortmund, but we still have to bounce back straight away.&rdquo; Wilshere accepts Arsenal had been &ldquo;nervous&rdquo; during the opening exchanges against Jurgen Klopp&rsquo;s side, but sees no reason why they should not be get a positive result at Signal Iduna Park, where they drew 1-1 in September 2011 after being within two minutes of victory. &ldquo;We know what we have to do now,&rdquo; the England midfielder said. &ldquo;We aim to win every game, and it will be tough, but we have been to Dortmund before and were unlucky not to win on the night.&rdquo; &mdash; PA Sport
