The Gunners missed the opportunity to move to the top of the Premier League as they slipped to a 2-1 loss at the Hawthorns - with the serious injury to Coquelin now leaving Wenger without a mainstay of his side over the busy festive period.
The 24-year-old has developed into a first-team regular at the Emirates Stadium and Wenger is hoping a scan later on Monday does not rule the France international out for even longer.
"I'm always a bit cautious," he said when asked about the seriousness of Coquelin's injury.
"It is a least two months but I'm cautious as we had so many bad surprises on scans that I do not want to speculate more than that
Certainly for the next two months we play without Coquelin."
