#2. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Arsenal)

The 29 year old Gabon international is one of the top contenders for the Golden Boot this season. He was a key part of Unai Emery’s tactical plan at the start of the season, where the Spaniard would start the games with Alexandre Lacazette and bring on Aubameyang in the second half, once the opposition midfield and defence were already tired.

This helped the 29-year-old get a lot more freedom to run with the ball and make runs at tiring opponents. The result has been four goals and an assist to his name coming off from the bench for his manager, which has really helped Arsenal’s pursuit of a top-four finish.

Aubameyang is one of the few players who has really flourished under Emery. If he can continue to perform like he has this season, the north London giants can have hopes of becoming Premier League champions once again in the long-run.
