Arsenal could have gone down the same path as Everton had it not been for Stan Kroenke.
Following a 2-1 defeat against Norwich City at the weekend, it was announced that the Toffees had parted ways with Rafa Benitez, despite only appointing the Spaniard last summer as a replacement for Carlo Ancelotti when he joined Real Madrid.
The former Liverpool and Chelsea boss ultimately paid the price for a poor run of form that has seen Everton hover dangerously close to the relegation zone after one win in 13 Premier League games - ironically that came against Arsenal last month.
