Arsenal skipper Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang faced the media today ahead of our big game against Villarreal at the Emirates tomorrow.
The Gabon star’s performances this season have been a hot topic of discussion to fans, pundits and the media. Auba hasn’t been anything like his usual self this term. He has struggled on the pitch – mostly due to what he has had to go through in his personal life.
My Revenge On Ben Foster
The Malaria he caught while on international duty just made things worse, but our skipper is back now and he is determined to end the season on a high as he claims that he ‘feels responsible’ for Arsenal struggling in the Premier League this term.
He said, as per Football London: “Everyone was expecting me to score more goals, I know it. Maybe I feel a bit responsible for this situation we are in. But we have a chance to change it. We want to give something back. I want to lead for tomorrow.”
That is exactly what we need from our captain ahead of what is our biggest game of the season. Nothing but a win is acceptable tomorrow, and the only way we can call this campaign a decent one is by winning the Europa League.
Aubameyang taking responsibility for his lack of goals this season is fantastic to see. A lot of people have had a million things to say about his leadership, but his words today should shut everyone up.
Arsenal fans absolutely love what Aubameyang has just said.
