Arsenal forward Aubameyang: I'm a team player

Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang says he always has his teammates on his mind after winning the Premier League Golden Boot.

The Gabon international scored twice against Burnley on Sunday to take his season tally to 22, equal with Liverpool duo Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.

Aubameyang told BBC Sport afterwards: "I am happy we won, and I am sharing this [Golden Boot] trophy with two other guys I like.

"My team-mates knew about the Golden Boot, I said nothing.

"I did not want them to play and only focus on me. I am a team player.

"The team have had a great season but last month it has not been the best in the league."
