Arsene Wenger ensures Arsenal avoid past mistakes with win at Nottingham Forest

"I think our history helped us a little bit to help us start in a much stronger way."

Arsene Wenger ensured Arsenal had the right mentality against Nottingham Forest following last year's League Cup upset at Sheffield Wednesday.

Wenger admitted last season's 3-0 defeat at Hillsborough was at the forefront of his mind as he prepared for Tuesday night's third-round tie in the East Midlands.
