Praise Aubameyang Ahead Of Arsenal Vs Leeds United, Arteta: I've Never Seen Him Playing Like Now

JAKARTA - Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta said he was pleased with the performance of striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang with the Gunners in recent times.

"Did you look at the way he runs, the goals he presses the ball and when he picks it up, the movement, the link, how to lead the game," Arteta explained.

"When he changes the rest, not when he is static and then he puts the ball in the net. I prefer this Auba."

Arteta says he will not think about how many goals Aubameyang has scored in recent games as he sees the Gabon international can give something on the pitch.

The Spaniard explained that it had never been done by Aubemeyang before like celebrating when Arsenal scored a goal.

"I'm not going to talk about goals, again that's what Auba gives on the pitch. I've never seen Auba play like he does now," said Arteta.

This season, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has once again shown his strength after scoring goals in his last two Premier League games against Crystal Palace and Aston Villa in the Premier League.

Noted, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has made 9 appearances this season and has scored 7 goals and 2 assists in the Premier League and English League Cup.

Arsenal will face Leeds United in the last 16 of the English League Cup at the Emirates Stadium, London, Tuesday night local time.
