The Gunners were like a deflated balloon by the end of their last campaign, and their attempts to pump themselves up this time around were hampered by the loss of key players.
Still there was the belief at the Emirates that the Gunners could excel this season.
However, results have gone spectacularly wrong for Arsenal, and van Persie is feeling disconsolate.
"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," the Dutch forward told Arsenal's official website.
"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."
