With the arrival of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the winter, Alexandre Lacazette lost his place in starting XI last season. But the Gabonese international has told Unai Emery that they should play together in the starting XI and is happy to play on left if Lacazette play in the centre.
Aubameyang struggled to get into the game against Manchester City despite the fine attacking performances on show. But when Arsenal boss introduced the french men in the second half the Gunners instantly became more of a threat.
We’re preparing a second change – and this guy is about to take to the field…
Let’s get to work, @LacazetteAlex 😎

When asked about his relationship with Lacazette, Aubameyang told ESPN:
‘We really get on well.
‘There is a spark between us when we are both on the pitch together.
‘We look for each other, we saw it [on Sunday] against City when he came on.
‘I don’t mind playing on the left if Laca is in the centre. We both want to do our best for the team.’
