#2 Poor showing from Aubameyang and Lacazette

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is now the joint top scorer in the league, following Mohammed Salah's hattrick at Bournemouth. However, both he and Alexandre Lacazette were poor this game, and missed two great chances a piece.

Lacazette's miss was arguably the most glaring of the two, as he seemed to have more space to maneuver in, and perhaps took too much time when taking a shot. It eventually came off his shin to go for a goal kick, but it was a glaring miss all the same.

The former BVB striker's chance was from a low cross which ordinarily he should have converted. Aubameyang did get a fine assist for Torreira's goal. Though overall the contributions of both attackers were muted.

However, they are to be forgiven bad performances here and there, especially given the prolific goal tallies of both forwards.

Aubameyang still is joint top scorer in the league, given Mohammed Salah's hat-trick at Bournemouth. Kane and Aguero, as other close runners for the Golden Boot, didn't score for Tottenham Hotspur nor Manchester City respectively.
