#1 Drop Alexandre Lacazette
In what world does it make sense for last year’s Golden Boot winner to play out wide for a man whose best return for a PL season is 14 goals?
Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang has suffered for much of this season by being made to spend time on the wing. The Gabonese international is clearly not a winger, and puts in his best performances through the middle like the striker he is.
When Unai Emery first came in last season, he publicly announced to the world that he would not be starting both Alexandre Lacazette and Aubameyang together. Fast forward a few weeks and he was forced to, at the detriment of the Golden Boot winner.
The 42-year-old must now make the bold decision to drop the Frenchman, in order to restore balance to Arsenal’s discombobulated attack. Currently the Gunners are heavily reliant on the 30-year-old’s goals, and playing him out on the wing does not help the pressure on him either.
