Have Arsenal ever been relegated? Premier League ever-presents as Everton battle to beat drop

The Premier League could lose one of its ever-presents this season. Everton are in a fight to retain their Premier League place, with Frank Lampard's men hovering just above the relegation zone.

The Toffees are just one place and one point above the bottom three in England's top flight following a 3-2 defeat to Burnley on Wednesday night - the team right behind them in the table. Lampard's men led 2-1 at half-time, but the Clarets came back to take all three points and set the cat amongst the pigeons in the relegation battle.

Everton have never been relegated from the Premier League, since its inception in 1992, although they have come close before. They famously came back from 2-0 down against Wimbledon on the final day of the 1993/94 season to win 3-2 and stave off relegation by two points. A draw or defeat would have sent them down.
