After 16 games last year they had 15 points, 1 point above the relegation zone.
I think when push comes to shove they'd have got it together under Mourinho but they were flirting with a relegation last December.

Doesn't count as a relegation battle when a club knows it can put together a number of wins on the spin whenever
Relegation battles are for clubs that honestly don't know when the next win is coming from
You're not wrong. One season where we were close to dropping out of the Top 4, Ivan came out and said we've planned for such a situation and we'd be fine without CL football.Quote:

Tim Payton is getting on my nerves, if you're wrong just admit you're wrong don't double down.
What's he said now?Quote:

Gutless.
Fair point. I don't think we'd be in a relegation battle so basically agree but if they're not playing for Wenger or each other then things are going to go seriously downhill, it's starting already.Quote:

Where is this information about him staying coming from? Why isn't this being considered as the regular media bullshit?
It's should all be considered as bullshit until an announcement is made.
The board know the fans aren't happy, which is why they wheeled Mr Chips out. They know we want change. If he signs a new deal now, next season could be even worse.
This is the worst it's been in 20 years.
This is what we're working with...
