Our best player last season in my opinion. Despite a disappointing end for us, Aubameyang gave us some very special moments and some belief up front.
Was driving home last night listening to Talksport and they would not stop banging on about an Aubameyang to Man Utd rumour. Apparently in the region of £80m and they claimed it has some legs to it because we are only willing to offer him £250,000 p/week and they are prepared to offer £350,000. Seems to have gone quiet today though, hopefully this and the links to China in the past few weeks have simply been his agent trying to get him a higher wage as apparently we are currently renegotiating his contract. We made that huge mistake of selling our star striker to Man Utd once before and watched him lift the league title with them the following season, not sure I could cope with a repeat of that ever again.
So he turned 30 today and physically he looks in great shape, I would much rather have two or three more seasons with our Golden Boot winner than cash in, don't think we would find anyone anywhere near his pedigree even with £80m to spend and particularly because it's nearly impossible for us to attract top players until we return to the CL, that would leave us seriously lacking any depth of quality up front with only Lacazette and Nketiah (who I do like a lot) to really call on.
Pierre-Emerick - my favourite Arsenal player now that Ramsey has departed, hope you're still poaching for us next season.
P.S. There is a nice video on https://www.arsenal.com/ with all his goals from last season.
Happy Birthday Auba!

The only way you could justify selling Auba is if it is for £120m plus. Which is obviously not going to happen.

The most special moment was the last gasp penalty miss against spurs. Just think of your situation if that had gone in.. #choker

Yah, imagine if the referee had done his job properly in that match as well, we would have had 3 points instead of 1 and finished above you in the league

Would say the 30 yard banger he smashed past Lloris is a contender for "the most special moment". That or a semi final hat trick.
