Manchester United Legend, Rio Ferdinandresponding to decisions Mikel Arteta “eject” Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Arsenal. Arteta is considered currently to have benefited.
Arteta parked Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang last December. The Gabon striker was then allowed to leave Arsenal in the January 2022 transfer window, having now joined Barcelona.
Aubameyang’s performance was brilliant with the Blaugrana. Aubameyang has scored five goals in six matches.
After the departure of Aubameyang, Arsenal did not get a new striker. On the other hand, the London Cannon always wins after the transfer of Aubameyang’s departure is complete.
“I feel he looks happy again. I saw him at Arsenal for a few months, he didn’t look happy,” said Rio Ferdinand as quoted by the Mirror.
“People underestimate how important happiness is when you are a footballer or any job. It’s important to have that happiness and satisfaction and he didn’t have it at Arsenal.”
“Both have benefited from his departure. Arteta is demanding more and more of the squad, more respect, they know where they stand now, there are lines that cannot be crossed, we don’t know the details.”
Ferdinand also emphasized that the claim could be correct if Arsenal were able to finish in the Champions League zone. The ticket has been very long can not be achieved by the Gunners.
“There is no doubting the level at which he (Aubameyang) has always scored goals in his career,” explained Rio Ferdinand.
“Obviously there is something going on behind the scenes. It works for another one. If Arsenal finish fourth, Arteta is right for what he has done.”
