Jakarta –
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s performance received criticism. The Arsenal forward has been slow since signing a new contract.
Aubameyang put an end to speculation about his future by renewing a new contract at Arsenal last summer. The Gabon international striker has extended his contract until 2023 and could reportedly increase his salary to £ 300,000 per week.
However, since he extended his contract, Aubameyang has appeared worse. He has only scored one goal in his last six games.
The only goal came in Arsenal’s win over Rapid Vienna in the Europa League last week. That means Aubameyang haven’t scored a goal in the last five Premier League games in a row.
Former England striker who is now an expert, Darren Bent, believes that it is not just Aubameyang’s taps that have clogged. Aubameyang’s overall performance also stood out.
“There is a decrease,” said Darren Bent. talkSPORT as reported Mirror.
“You see his performance in the FA Cup semi-finals and final last season, the Community Shield, and against Fulham (in the Premier League opener), he’s arguably one of the best forwards in the Premier League, maybe the best”.
“But since he signed a new contract, it could be a coincidence, but it is not as violent as before.”
“He lost a great opportunity in the game, he didn’t work with the same intensity, he didn’t seem like he was enjoying it.”
Going five straight league games without scoring a goal is Aubameyang’s longest fasting goal since 2014. Manchester United’s goal will be Aubameyang’s next challenge when Arsenal travel to Old Trafford in the Premier League on Sunday (11 / 1/2020).
“Confidence is very important for forwards. In fact, all players need, but especially forwards, when they are used to scoring as many goals as he is and then suddenly they stop scoring goals, it can be a concern,” continued Darren Bent. .
“But I think it’s also a matter of perseverance. Remember, he was up and down, he was all over the place, but lately he hasn’t come close to that,” she said.
