There’s been a fair bit of chatter about Aubameyang being a killer to Lacazette’s Arsenal career but so far I’d say he’s actually helping his game a lot. Super layoffs and link ups between the two. They’be interchanged between that ST/LW space pretty well so far. Hope we start them both and see if that continues to prove threatening.

Really hope we start Laca and Auba together aswell, two brilliant strikers who have a good rapport together

Would be really stupid to ever start these two together in anything other than desperate circumstances. We have a really great opportunity here to maintain a very good level of quality in the CF position all season long.

Why would you wreck that by playing them together, increasing their fatigue by and risk of injury? Surely makes more sense to rotate the pair, have them compete with the added bonus of no drop off in fitness levels or quality at CF position considering our busy schedule.

Thier ‘connection’ is nothing special really. Auba is the key person here, such is his quality he’ll link up well with up well with any forward with a half decent brain and movement. Lucas, Iwobi, Miki, Ozil and Ramsey are all capable of having a strong link in their own right, makes sense that they can maintain that with Auba and it’ll will yield goals.

Laca is back up for sure, he’ll be important in the early stages of the League Cup and Europa league, we need to keep him fresh for his back up role. Lose Auba and we’re relying on inferior options at CF, maybe eddie we’ll break through

Wenger always said: ‘It’s a marathon not a sprint’. Smart squad management is needed for sure

And yet someone wants to bench Laca. Guess who :xhaka:

Wenger? :wenger:

Aubameyang has missed 6 games in 4 years or something through injury, not sure how much rest he’ll need.

A yankee :wink:

lol at the SULO logo! When these bins were introduced in Sweden in the 90’s, the brand was SULO. I was in high school and had a friend who’s nickname was Sulo. He had a rockabilly band called Sulo and the c*cksuckers and we took every sticker we could find, literally hundreds, all over the town. On a gig these stickers were everywhere on stage. On the drum set, guitars, the wall behind the scene etc.
I haven’t thought about this for like 15 years until that logo brought back all memories :rofl:

50.1 lol! They did it again! :rofl:

he had this one moment before his goal, which was awesome but saved fantastically by the goalie. Would have been a brilliant goal.

More of the same pls

Was cutting in from out on the left too, to an extent…

I’ve always said he needs to drop all consideration for link play etc and just focus on poaching goals. Will get better numbers that way

We became more dangerous after he came off the bench. Keep it up :laca:

What a super sub to have ! :+1:

Numbers are a bit overrated imo. Drogba had only two seasons where he had 20 or more goals in a season yet I would pick him as my striker over any Premier League striker but Henry from the past 20 years.

It depends on the type of striker. I expect poachers to score goals and offer little else to the team.

I agree it not always smart to measure success by numbers
