Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s performance against league leaders Manchester City was a testament that footballers, especially those in their 30s, tread on thin ice.
Put one foot wrong and the social media is filled with posts stating the player is out of his depths. In Aubameyang’s case, people who were being critical of the striker on social media completely forgot the impact the player had on the team just seven days back.
Aubameyang is too often a passenger when playing as a striker. His hold up play has been horrific.

The 31-year-old has had an underwhelming campaign this season, having netted just five goals in the Premier League prior to the game against Leeds last week.
