SATURDAY ROUND-UP - by Pedro - LE GROVE
Sep 7, 2024 · SATURDAY ROUND-UP. DECLAN RICE STARS. Pedro. Sep 07, 2024. 41. 72. Can you believe it? Yesterday, I spent 1,200 words writing about a tree I didn’t like and completely forgot that Le Grove turned 17 years old on the 6th of …
CHELSEA CLIFF NOTES - by Pedro - LE GROVE
2 days ago · Chelsea has a young team of raw talent, and the common feature in most of them is pace. No slouches anywhere. Hard to get in behind them and win. Saka loses his first one-on-one against Side Show Bob. Martinelli also needs to do some damage against Gusto. Caicedo puts in a very heavy challenge on Odegaard.
COMPLETE DOMINANCE, AGAIN - by Pedro - LE GROVE

ARSENAL TAKE TITLE TO LAST GAME - by Pedro - LE GROVE
May 13, 2024 · The only thing that needs to happen in your 37th game of the season is a win. The history books do not remember the bad games, especially if the majority of the 36 prior were top-tier.

2 days ago · Pedro. Nov 11, 2024. 19. I’ll start with a concluding point. Arsenal are good enough to win the Premier League, but so far this season, we’re nowhere near lucky enough. The seasons you win, everything goes your way. You don’t get red cards, you don’t lose your best players to big injuries, and you kill off games you deserve to win in ...
'DEEPENING THE TRUSTPOOL' TRANSFER STRATEGY - by Pedro
May 11, 2024 · That’s why this summer will be about moving towards Deepening The Trust Pool. Arteta will look to shift on 7 or so players who aren’t trusted and bring in at least three players he really does love and can use. We don’t have a back-up 9 that suits the system / can score goals. Bukayo Saka doesn’t have a back-up.
NO EXCUSES - by Pedro - LE GROVE
Pedro. Oct 27, 2024. 23. 421. 1. Share. Oh, you didn’t hear? Sky pundits are childishly setting up today’s narrative as ‘no excuses,’ so if we win, they called it, and it’s "normal" to beat the form team in the league.

GEORDIE PAIN - CAN WE ADD MORE? - by Pedro - LE GROVE
Pedro. Nov 01, 2024. 26. 125. Share. Arsenal head to Newcastle this weekend for an early game in a tie that has brought a lot of pain over the Arteta tenure.
