Watford striker, Troy Deeney has come out to say that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s lack of goals is as a result of his position in the Arsenal formation.
Troy recently revealed that the coach has to tweak his tactics to get the best out of the Gabon international this season.
According to him, Aubameyang is clearly not getting into the same positions he once was and the goal threat he had before is completely gone now.
He added that Arsenal players might also be tired mentally and physically before of the back to back games this season.
His words, “I’m starting to think, do they need to change formation to probably get Aubameyang in better situations?”
“I know it’s very easy as we are pundits who sit here and watch and think we know everything about coaching, but he doesn’t seem to be getting in the same positions he once was and the goal threat he had before as well.”
“Especially for those Arsenal guys who played the last game in the FA Cup and with the Community Shield as well.
“They are probably tired; people don’t like to hear sportsmen get tired but they do. Mentally as well as physically. He’s just having a bit of a slow start.
“Would you still think he’s going to score 20 goals this season? I think he would score that many. When he gets going he’ll be right up there.”
