Aubameyang’s Agent Takes A Dig At Mikel Arteta, Plays Blame-game Over Goal Drought

Arsenal forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has struggled for form ever since he signed his latest contract with the club. The Gabon international has been part of an Arsenal attack that has struggled to find the back of the net in the Premier League this season. Many fans have criticised Aubameyang for his poor performances, with fans once again taking to social media to troll the attacker after his abject performance in the North London derby against Tottenham. However, the striker’s agent seems to have leaped to his client’s defense, suggesting that Mikel Arteta’s tactics are to blame for Aubameyang’s poor form in front of goal. Mikel Arteta’s men once again failed to convert their dominance into goals, as they slipped to another defeat in the Premier League. Arsenal lost to Tottenham 2-0, with Harry Kane and Son Heung-min scoring the goals in the first half. However, it was Arsenal who dominated possession, keeping 70% of the ball during the encounter. Aubameyang himself had a game to forget, failing to produce a shot, create a chance or complete a take on against Spurs. The striker struggled to get involved in the game as well, taking the fewest touches amongst the players who started the game.
