Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is thrilled to have Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang back to his goalscoring best. Aubameyang scored his first Premier League hat-trick in Sunday's 4-2 win over Leeds United at the Emirates. The Gabon international is now the Gunners' leading scorer in all competitions this season with 11 goals to his name. He has now scored 200 league goals in Europe's top five divisions. “He’s been training really good," Arteta told Sky Sports. "He wants to get back, he wants to help the team and I could see that this week. I had a feeling to put him as a nine today and he’s done the job." Meanwhile, Martin Odegaard made his full debut for the Gunners following his loan move from Real Madrid. And Arteta was impressed with the Norwegian's first start for the club. “Big credit to him to play his first Premier League start, against Leeds, after not playing a lot of football the last three months," he added. “Run the way he did, how comfortably and creative he was on the ball, and the personality he showed in the game, it was great.”
