Chelsea striker Aubameyang hooked in Arsenal defeat with dismal stats

Chelsea striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang endured a horror show against his former club Arsenal at the weekend.

The Gabon forward was not at his best in the London derby, as the Gunners emerged from Stamford Bridge with a 1-0 away win.

Aubameyang, who left Arsenal for Barcelona back in January, had less than ten touches and was subbed with half an hour of the game remaining.

The man who eventually replaced him at Arsenal, Gabriel Jesus, was lively and energetic throughout the contest.

Jesus managed 63 touches in the game, winning 11 duels as well.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta will feel vindicated about his decision to part with Aubameyang last season.
