"According to BBC Sport, the Dane is taking on a part-time role at the Emirates Stadium, but Arteta would not confirm the story in his press conference on Friday. The Spanish tactician spoke to the press ahead of the weekend Premier League match away to Nottingham Forest, and the arrival of Gronnemark was one of the topics discussed. Mikel Arteta responds to question about Arsenal's new throw-in coach When asked about bringing in Gronnemark, Arteta said: No comment about it."
"Arteta was then pressed on trying to improve in that area, to which he responded: We try to improve every single area, every single margin that we possibly can to be a better team. We have many experts, many people around to help us to become as good as we can. Arsenal fans will perhaps be surprised that Arteta slightly evaded this question, but it's also probably fair enough if the 43-year-old doesn't want to give too much away about his tactics"
"Arsenal have now scored a total of 24 goals from set plays so far this season, more than any other team in Europe."
Thomas Gronnemark is reported to have begun a part-time role at Arsenal as a specialist throw-in coach, having previously worked with Liverpool. Mikel Arteta refused to confirm the appointment in his pre-match press conference, answering "No comment about it." Arteta said the club continually seeks improvements across every area and uses many experts and staff to enhance margins. Arsenal have heavily emphasised set-piece work under Arteta and have scored 24 goals from set plays this season, more than any other team in Europe. Adding a specialist throw-in coach would expand Arsenal's set-piece repertoire and increase their attacking threat.
