Portsmouth’s troubles on and off the pitch aggravated following a 4-1 home demolotion by Arsenal, who remain in the hunt for the Premier League title.

From this result it is clear Pompey, FA Cup winners last year under Harry Redknapp face an uphill battle to save themselves from relegation come May 2010.

Arsenal fans, meanwhile, could well have the champagne on ice in anticipation of what may yet prove a vintage year for Arsene Wenger’s young Gunners, whoare now just four points behind leaders Chelsea and with a game in hand.

The visitors were always in command after Eduardo’s free-kick had deflected off Younes Kaboul, before Samir Nasri drilled in a second just before half-time and Wales teenager Aaron Ramsey replacing Fabregas smashed home a third on 69 minutes.

Although Nadir Belhadj – one of several Pompey players set to leave for African Nations Cup duty pulled one back, Cameroon midfielder Alex Song nodded in a fourth with 10 minutes left.
