Did you miss this bit
Not saying they can't or won't, but they need to keep this up all season to be put in the same conversation as two of our very best ever players IMO.

@rich 1990 rarely makes football predictions in this regard... Respect AM's grouchy Grandpa!Not saying they can't or won't, but they need to keep this up all season to be put in the same conversation as two of our very best ever players IMO.
I'm just going to say it, he and Laca are not far off Henry and Bergkamp as a partnership. There, I said it.
It's weird having a genuine goal scorer, someone who just has a history of scoring a ****load of goals.
6 in 9 this season
31 in 38 last season
40(!!) in 46 the season before.
Players like him just seem to get goals regardless of where they play, how well they're playing or how well their teams play.
Laca, imo, is the better striker and you can see that he's had the better season so far but you can't not back Auba to finish as the top scorer. He just has the nose for it.

I see it as Laca is the better overall player, but Auba is the more natural goalscorer. Love them both.It's weird having a genuine goal scorer, someone who just has a history of scoring a ****load of goals.

Was PEA really problematic at Dortmund? I thought it was only when he kicked up a fuss because he wanted to leave last summer and in January.
Apparently Sven ensured everyone at the club that he doesn't have any attitude problems. Honestly think it was just trying to force a move, other than that I don't believe there was any real problems, certainly not for at least 80% of his time at Dortmund.
Auba has that pace to get away from defenders and get on the end of things and finish. He spends a lot of time trying to get away from defenders like van Persie only auba is quicker. Lacazette on the other hand seem to relish the battle with defenders but he is also a lethal finisher. He strikes the ball very well. His second goal against Fulham was special. He set up as if he was putting the laces through, but swang his hips and hit it with the inside almost in the way people do when they want to send the goalie the wrong way on penalties. I could never have imagined that let alone executed it.I see it as Laca is the better overall player, but Auba is the more natural goalscorer. Love them both.
How did you get that percent mate?
He was at Dortmund from 2006 to 2017. That would be 2.2 years of problem which would fit the main story that is going around.
I mean Auba btw not Sven.
