Just over 12 months ago Stoke were celebrating a 1-0 victory over Arsenal at the bet365 Stadium.

It felt like a seminal moment for Mark Hughes, already under pressure after a torrid end to the previous season, and it was an archetypal 'Stoke' performance including all the qualities which Arsene Wenger used to detest.

What followed, however, was an unfolding nightmare for Hughes and Stoke, ending in what was an inevitable relegation and the end of the club's 10-year existence as a Premier League club.

The problems which afflicted Stoke last season were clear for all to see long before that - and it is now Gary Rowett picking up the mess.

On Wednesday night, Stoke were thumped 3-0 at home by Wigan Athletic and this was undoubtedly another archetypal performance - for a club relegated to the Championship.
