Image Credits: Imago ImagesBournemouth’s draw with Manchester City last night has officially crowned Arsenal as Premier League champions – and it happened with Mikel Arteta’s side watching on from the Sobha Training Centre.The stalemate on the south coast meant City could no longer catch the Gunners, sparking celebrations at Arsenal’s base as players and staff watched their title rivals slip up.

For Liverpool, it sadly confirms they are no longer the reigning champions.As the images of jubilant Arsenal players filtered out, one subtle subplot to this title win is the presence of a familiar face for some Liverpool fans.Former Reds specialist coach Thomas Gronnemark, once brought in by Jurgen Klopp to revolutionise throw-ins and set-pieces, is now part of the backroom brains behind Arsenal’s success.Klopp’s decision to employ a dedicated throw‑in coach back in 2018 raised eyebrows across the game, but Gronnemark’s influence was soon evident as Liverpool became more efficient, more inventive and more dangerous from restarts.That same expertise has since been exported to north London. Gronnemark has been working with Arteta’s squad to squeeze every possible advantage from throw‑ins and dead-ball situations.Gronnemark took to LinkedIn to share the news, writing:“Big congratulations to Arsenal with the Premier League title.

Please let me know if you need help to improve your throw-ins next season.”Gronnemark arrived at Anfield in the summer of 2018 after Klopp reached out directly following an article in German newspaper Bild.During his five years with the club, the Reds won seven major titles, including the Champions League, Premier League, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, FA Cup, and two League Cups.Seemingly working more free-lance, there is a chance Gronnemark could yet return for another stint at Anfield.
