Overview
- Thomas Gronnemark is working with Arsenal on a part-time basis, visiting the training ground to coach technique and routines.
- Gronnemark previously spent five years under Jürgen Klopp at Liverpool, where throw-in possession under pressure reportedly rose from about 45.4% to 68.4%.
- Brentford have scored nine goals from long-throw situations since the start of last season with Gronnemark’s input, while Arsenal have none in that span.
- Arsenal top the Premier League for set-piece goals this season with 14, a strength built under set-piece coach Nicolas Jover that the club is seeking to expand.
- Declan Rice has been used as a long-throw option this season, with Gronnemark brought in to refine both long throws and broader throw-in strategies.
