Ian Wright slams Aubameyang for unforgivable miss against Newcastle

Arsenal won 2-0 against Newcastle United but Aubameyang made a dreadful miss.

The Gunners broke the deadlock with Saka’s 56 min goal and then scored their second goal with Martinelli’s perfect volleyed finish at the Emirates.

Mikel Arteta’s men are holding strong to their fifth position in the table and it was a perfect response from their humiliating 4-0 loss by Liverpool last weekend.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had a point-blank miss in the first half of the game and club legend Ian Wright tore him apart for the miss.

‘Poor finishing. That’s a great chance. It’s a fantastic ball,’ Ian Wright said to Premier League Productions.

‘It’s quite an easy save for the goalkeeper. For me, Emile Smith Rowe has to score first of all from where he is.

‘But this [Aubameyang’s miss], there’s no excuse for that. I don’t know what to say.

‘He’s a top goalscorer, he’s got himself in a position and he’s just leaning back.

‘He thinks it’s foregone in his mind, but he’s actually missed the goal. It’s hit the outside of the post.’

‘For me, it’s an unforgivable miss.’
