Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang netted twice on Sunday in the Gunners’ 2-2 draw with Norwich City, keeping up his impressive goalscoring record away from home.
The 30-year-old took his Premier League tally to 10 in Freddie Ljungberg’s first game as interim boss at Carrow Road.
Aubameyang’s brace means that he is still the only player to have scored for the Gunners away from home in the league since September.
The staggering stat was shared by @AFTVMedia, and it left these supporters shocked and embarrassed.
Twitter: @AFTVMedia That’s shocking. Without this man we would be fighting relegation & some fans want to sell him

Twitter: @AFTVMedia He’s scored all of them full stop bar Torreira’s goal at Anfield

Twitter: @AFTVMedia Quite depressing when you think about it. (@arsenalredskins)
Twitter: @AFTVMedia Nothing to be proud of. Can’t have one man scoring goals. (@MusondaSinkala)
Twitter: @AFTVMedia I didn’t but it’s not surprising (@andhedid1)
Twitter: @AFTVMedia Relegation without him. (@Rodfather73)
Read Arsenal verdict
The Gabon international has scored five times since Lucas Torreira’s consolation against Liverpool in August, and really, it shouldn’t come as a surprise.
Arsenal’s form on the road has been abysmal. The Gunners’ only win in the league away from home came on the opening weekend, with Aubameyang also scoring that day in the 1-0 win over Newcastle United.
Something really needs to change if Arsenal are to push for the top six, and ultimately, if the Gunners lost Aubameyang over the summer, they’d probably be in a relegation battle right now.
