🚨 EMERGENCY AOP POD 🚨: HAVERTZ INJURY CHAOS + LIVERPOOL SLOT ROT?!
This one is spicy. Arsenal’s season took a gut punch with the news that Kai Havertz is out—INJURED IN A HIGH-PRESSING DRILL while the lads were supposed to be resting in Dubai. We break down what that means for the next run of games and whether Arteta’s training methods are running players into the ground.
BUT… the football gods gave us a lifeline. Liverpool dropped points in brutal fashion against Everton, and suddenly the title race is back on. We talk:
🔥 The slot rot—is Liverpool about to unravel?
🔥 Man City lurking—can Pep’s side deliver a knockout blow?
🔥 Arsenal’s path—can we survive without a forward line?
🔥 The Pogmol conspiracy—was Michael Oliver on a mission?
It’s all here, full of high-t takes and a little bit of existential dread. Tap in. 🎧
