Mikel Arteta makes Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang claim ahead of Tottenham derby

Arsenal are set to face Tottenham on Sunday in the north London derby. Ahead of the game head coach Mikel Arteta has talked to the press and was asked about Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's form, as it was not good last time Gunners met Spurs at home.

"Well, that was just an incident that I had to make a decision and I did on the day," said Arteta.   "Now I think Auba is in a different position. That doesn’t mean he was in a bad position at the time. It was just an incident that we as a team have some ways of living together.   "It wasn’t the case so we made a decision. And now I think now he’s been in really good form.   "I think the way he played at Burnley, even if he didn’t score a goal, it was extraordinary the way he played for the team. So we are expecting him to do the same."

Aubameyang has played 5 games so far for Arsenal, scored 4 goals and assisted once. Source - football.london Join us on Telegram!/ Follow us on Twitter!
