  • THERAPY SESSION: REVISITING ODEGAARD SLANDER

    THERAPY SESSION: REVISITING ODEGAARD SLANDER
    May 2 2025
    Arsenal are licking wounds after a 1-0 home loss to PSG, and Pedro’s back with Jacob Hawley to sift through the Champions League aftermath. They dive deep into the Odegaard discourse: is the criticism fair or is the captain just carrying more than we know? There's talk of midfield rotations, the brutal learning curve of Champions League knockout football, and whether the atmosphere hype is helping or hurting. They reflect on the TIFO drama, revisit the madness of Inter vs. Barcelona, and preview how Arsenal can turn the tide in Paris with Partey, tactical tweaks, and a little less desperation. Plus: striker shopping gets serious. Is it time for the Gyokeres hammer? Or is Sesko the smart long-term bet? We hope you ENJOY this. Thank you.
