Author of a new double against Nantes (2-0), Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is in exceptional form with Olympique de Marseille.
But where will Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang stop? In great form, the Gabonese striker was once again decisive for Olympique de Marseille, scoring twice to give the Phocaeans victory against Nantes (2-0).
The figures prove it, “Aubame” is having a very good season, since he has 11 goals in Ligue 1, 9 goals in the Europa League, and a total of 23 goals in all competitions. The club’s second top scorers are Chancel Mbemba, Jordan Veretout and Ismaila Sarr, who each scored 5 goals.
The best with Gasset
This shows the importance of the former Dortmund and Arsenal striker, who is clearly the major element of OM, as confirmed by Jean-Louis Gasset. “ He’s THE player, in all teams you have ‘the’ player, so you put the player where he likes and then you build the team. It’s the person who makes us play well, who scores the goals for us, if we have to work, he comes back to work. It’s generosity itself, but he’s ‘the’ player in the squad”confided the Olympian coach at a press conference.
Upon his arrival, Gasset made sure to put Aubameyang in the best possible position, by adapting his playing system to place the Gabonese in the position he prefers, between the left and the axis, with players around him to combine. The result is spectacular: “PEA” found the net during the five matches of the Gasset era, for 8 goals in total over this period. Indisputable.
