Arsenal’s 3-3 draw at home to Fulham on Saturday which saw them lose a 2-0 lead in typically woeful fashion, on the back of a draw in the Champion’s League to Schalke in midweek, and a loss to United at Old Trafford the previous weekend, Arsene Wenger must now pull his head out of the sand and recognize his team are in a crisis.

The Gunners currently sit 8th in the Premier League, having taken just 16 points from a possible 33 – 11 points off the league leaders United and miles away from genuine title contention already.

They’ve won just four games this season and may well find themselves in a spot of bother come May if they keep shipping goals and gifting points they way they have so far.But should the unthinkable happen – Arsene Wenger’s Arsenal finishing outside the top four – it might actually be just the medicine the Gunners need.
