Nottingham Forest 4-2 Arsenal (2018)

Arsenal enjoyed plenty of FA Cup success throughout the 2010s as they lifted the trophy four times.

However, the Gunners also suffered one or two bleak eliminations and their defeat at the City Ground in 2018 epitomised the depths to which Arsenal had sunk under Wenger. This was prime AFTV.

This was a classic cup tie that the visitors were on the wrong side of. An Eric Lichaj brace handed the second-tier outfit a 2-1 half-time lead before the Gunners conceded a pair of second-half penalties to put the tie beyond them.

The eventual 4-2 defeat was just another miserable episode towards the end of Wenger’s tenure as a wave of toxicity clouded over the club.

How times have changed, eh?
