Another weekend, another disappointing result for Arsenal. The Gunners visited Tottenham for the highly-anticipated North London Derby with the hopes of returning to winning ways, but much to the frustration of their fans, Arteta’s side came away with another defeat.
Aubameyang and Co. started off dominant and enjoyed most of the possession throughout the game. However, they failed to do much with the ball and conceded twice from counter-attacks, with Son and Kane getting on the scoresheet en route to a 2-0 defeat.
It was another lackluster performance from the away side who failed to test Hugo Lloris despite hoarding possession. After the game, Aubameyang came under criticism after the game due to his lack of effort and negative body language as the captain failed to rally the soldiers to victory.
However, this sparked a response from the player’s agent as he aimed a dig at the club. Kmen Media, who represent the Gabonese striker, took to Instagram to share a worrying infographic in defense of the former Dortmund ace.
The stat in question is the number of chances the club have created, which stands at 65. This figure is the worst in the league. As a result, it isn’t too surprising that the Gunners boast the third-least shots on target and the fourth-worst goals tally.
Kmen Media’s statement was loud and clear: “If you create more chances”. This has been their weak point as Arteta’s men have lacked creativity, leaving their deadly striker without supply.
Speaking after the game, Mikel stressed the importance of scoring, insisting their inability to find the back of the net is unsustainable. However, the Spaniard spoke positively about the performance as a whole, praising his men’s effort.
