Hi ed001. Just wanted to get your thoughts on aubameyang vs arteta? Auba was dropped today for disciplinary problems and before that he's been very poor for us.

{Ed001's Note - it is not really like that. This is something Aubameyang has done throughout his career. This is not the first time he has been dropped because of it either. You will be well rid of him.}

Apparently him and Klopp didn't see eye to eye either.

Dortmound had to suspended him on two separate occasions even though he was in prolific form on the pitch.

At Arsenal he's neither doing it on or off the pitch but he does have that huge contract and two more years left on it, so I don't suppose he personally feels in any desperate need to resolve anything.

Thanks Ed. Just one more question mate. With arsenal clearly wanting a striker in January or December, we are being linked wit Vhalovic and Calvert Lewin, both probably unlikely transfers. What striker, realistically, do you think arsenal should go for?

{Ed002's Note - I am not sure that there is an urgent need for January and it is far from an ideal time to recruit players. Folarin Balogun has been doing really well in PL2 and deserves more chances with the first team. A decision needs to be made with Eddie Nketiah and a new contract, else he will be gone soon. Marinelli can also provide cover. Some players the club have been considering like Jovic and Moussa Dembele are just possibly still an option. Others like Darwin Nunez and Youssef En-Nesyri are far less likely as they have far more attractive options than Arsenal available to them.}

Hit the nail on the head with balogun there Ed. For the life of me I cannot understand why he hasn't had more minutes this season. Auba has been poor and plus this disciplinary issue. Lacca most likely leaving and nketiah has said he wants to leave. Can't see how balogun who has signed and wants to be here hasn't had more minutes.
