Arise Sir Drug Cheat

This makes me wonder how there are not more drug test failures in the Premier league.

I find this very odd. You have 20 teams. let's say 25 players per squad. 500 young lads aged earliest 16 and latest mid 30s, athlete

Yet it doesn't seem to happen often. unless they are kept quiet. .

As Arsene has said, until you do blood testing the screening is not credible as EPO doesn't show in wee-wee tests.
