Arsenal forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang says the team have stagnated over the last few seasons.
"It's a bit of a mixed feeling. On one hand, for the fans, it's odd that the boss is going, but it's a new start. To speak the truth, over the last few seasons the team has stagnated a little bit," the 28-year-old told RMC.
"My preference, as everyone knows, is to play down the middle. What I hope can happen is we can play with two attackers, that would be the best.
"But if the new coach asks me to play wide, that's no problem. He's [Emery] a really good coach. In Paris, it's never very easy
Very refreshing to see players are not restricted to talk as was under previous regime.
Aubameyang club has stalled

probably what he said was taken out of context
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Doubt it, he seems to know Wenger was a gonna and seems like all the players knew all along and couldn’t care to perform odd.

but who cares anyway, let's move on, these types of stories are such a bore. people just love to moan

"We already have a quality squad, but if we maybe had another two players that would be good. But everyone needs to get into their heads that we have to work hard to rival the top teams” said Aubameyang

To buy a player like Aubameyang and then play him wide was surprising to me, I dont have any problem with him saying he wants to play centrally and I rate him more than Laca, but its great to have them both.
One thing I noticed in his press conference was he said he would be working hard with the team and they all would have to work hard. Something I dont think they will be used to.

Auba played wide a cpuplr of times to get Laca some match fitness. Hardly a big deal and certainly not an indication of his future.

Very polite from Auba. We have actually regressed badly.

Sounds like he actually has knowledge of the club and his own abilities - we need more players like that

Suggests that he knew Wenger was going when he signed.
Was probably told.

You have point he must have known all along won’t be surprised the players knew it too and couldn’t care less hence the nastiness of the news by Gazidis.

Aubameyang: "I thought [Wenger] would be at Arsenal for years. Sometimes you never know. But I was happy to play for him."

All you people complaining:
1. We all say the same thing!
2. Would you really prefer a player who thought everything was perfect?! This quote suggests he knew the club was stagnating but he still came. Shows he's confident of a change coming...
This is good, no?
