Arsenal 14th | Coventry City 13th (22)

Arsenal look a very average side but City are poor and never threaten. Thompson, a transfer target of the Gunners recently, has lost his touch and not scored in seven. Thomas decides the dreadful game when, under pressure from Rix, he deliciously lobs over his keeper, Jim Blyth.
