Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s entourage spoke after the Marseille-Lille match. A meeting during which the Gabonese international striker drew the wrath of Marseille supporters due to his lack of realism.
Replaced during the last quarter of an hour of the match against Lille (0-0) as part of the 11th day of Ligue 1, Olympique de Marseille striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (34 years old) left the field to boos from the Vélodrome this Saturday evening. The fault is his lack of efficiency in front of goals.
“As he is the head of the gondola, he tastes”
Since the start of the season, the Gabonese international has posted a record well below expectations with 5 goals and 3 assists in 15 matches in all competitions, including 1 goal and 3 goals in the league. Faced with the criticism of the former Stéphanois, who arrived free this summer from Chelsea, those around him did not hesitate to come to his defense, attesting to his determination.
“I have the impression that people focus on feeling and, as he is the head of the gondola, he tastes. But he’s making the same calls as before, he’s ‘fit’, determined.” said one of the Laval residents’ relatives to the daily newspaper The Team, this Monday.
