Coventry City 10th | Arsenal 11th (22)

Arsenal are destroyed by a super second-half display of attacking, inspired by Steve Hunt. Thompson heads the first, Hunt’s delicious ball sets up English, and Gary Gillespie races 40 yards, takes a pass from Van Gool, and dummies Jennings before scoring. Coop’s 400th League game.
