As a combined result of this loss and Liverpool's victory against Manchester City, the Arsene Wenger-managed side are now 8 points away from a coveted top-4 finish - something many believe is the only thing Arsenal might be able to achieve this season.

The Gunners have only won 1 of their 7 games across all competitions, and none in their last 5 - meaning they're winless in 2018.

After last week's FA Cup exit, and the Premier League seemingly lightyears out of reach, Arsenal are only really in contention for the Carabao Cup - a cup that will need them to get past Chelsea and then quite possibly, Manchester City - and the UEFA Europa League - a cup that will need them to trump the likes of Borussia Dortmund, Atletico Madrid, and Napoli.

If things continue the way they're going, silverware will remain nothing but a distant longing, and an empty trophy cabinet might just spell a premature end (he is on a 2-year contract which ends only after next season) for Arsene Wenger and his Arsenal career.
