How Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang reacted after Arsenal’s win against Watford

Arsenal’s club-record signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was delighted to have found the scoresheet during the Gunners’ 3-0 Premier League win over Watford on Sunday.

The 28-year-old made a strong start to his Gunners’ career by netting in the 5-1 thumping of Everton last month, but he thereafter went on a goalless run against the likes of Tottenham and Manchester City.

The Gabon international netted in a losing cause against Brighton earlier in the month, but was pleased to have revived his confidence with another goal, this time in a winning situation against the Hornets.

He said: “Yes, it’s starting to come. Today was a great team effort. I think the confidence is back I think, for me as well. I am feeling better and I have to thank my team-mates.”

Meanwhile, when asked on the difficulty of adapting to a new league, the ex-Dortmund man admitted that there were issues, but he is happy that the team are back in a good run of form with back-to-back wins in all competitions.

Arsenal will now shift their focus to the Europa League last-16 second-leg versus AC Milan on Thursday night, before going into a two-week long international break.

Aubameyang is unfortunately ineligible to feature in the competition owing to ex-club Borussia Dortmund’s participation in the same, and he will have to wait until the game versus Stoke City on April 1.

Arsene Wenger’s side secured a well deserved 2-0 win at San Siro earlier this month, and they should be in a strong position to the quarter-final of the Europa League, barring a surprise collapse.

The likes of Aaron Ramsey and Laurent Koscielny are expected to return after the weekend rest, and there could also be potential comebacks for Hector Bellerin and Nacho Monreal from injuries as well.
