Mikel Arteta believes there has been a "click" with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as he praised the way the Arsenal captain has recently embraced his role within the squad.
Aubameyang hit his fourth Premier League goal of the season as Arsenal beat Aston Villa 3-1 on Friday night.
He also scored a hat-trick in the Carabao Cup second-round win at West Brom but is unlikely to feature in the fourth-round clash with Leeds on Tuesday night.
The 32-year-old is always a goal threat but Arteta has been pleased with what he has seen from Aubameyang's all-round game in recent weeks.
