Arsenal fans laugh off Kane and Aubameyang comparisons

Plenty of Arsenal fans have hit back at claims from Tottenham supporters online as they compare Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Harry Kane.

After spotting the two both find the back of the net over the weekend, Tottenham supporters hailed the Englishman for his rather muted celebration, with the home side fighting their way back into the game.

Compare that to Aubameyang, who leapt into the away end at Bournemouth after equalising for the Gunners in a similar scenario. While it was a source of laughter for Spurs fans, these Arsenal fans on social media were having none of it.

Read Arsenal verdict

While on the face of things, it doesn’t look great from Aubameyang, it can also be viewed a good thing too.

After such a difficult spell for the club, the goal was probably a huge weight off his shoulders.

Aubameyang has felt the burden of Arsenal’s struggles this season more than most and if it wasn’t his goals, the club would have a much bigger problem on their hands.

The point away to Bournemouth is a good starting block for Arteta and he’ll be looking to build on that in the coming weeks, with Aubameyang hopefully playing a key role in the team.
