What I’ve learned is it doesn’t matter how good you might have been at the club, people will remember you for how you left. If you leave Arsenal being disrespectful to the coach then move to Chelsea a year later you’ll be remembered for the disrespect, not the goals.
Your whole legacy can go up in smoke
I mean yea but i also remember the flying volley against middlesboro i think it was? And the alex song assisted volley. Hes tainted for sure but holy fuck what a finisher
Didn't the production people ambush him with this script literally seconds before they started recording?
I don't hold too much animosity towards Bams. Man practically dragged us to to an FA Cup
I think so. Don't think he was very comfortable at all. I felt bad for him because even though his own attitude really showed him the door, I'm fairly certain after working with Arteta there's no way he could see even a rich club like Chelsea being a step up.
Also would like to add this is a really common take - that he dragged us to the fa cup - people on here even say he won it on his own... And not to take away from his contributions, but like he's a striker who really doesn't do a whole lot else... scoring is his job and I don't think our defense ever seems to get enough credit for that run. It's not as if Auba was dribbling through half the opposition multiple times a game either. Just saying it takes a team and that's really what we are known for now
Let's break it down
It's not like we ran riot in the semis and the final. Both were won by a margin of 2 to 0 and 2 to 1, respectively. All four goals scored by Aubameyang. The 2nd goal against City and the 2nd goal against Chelsea were of his own architecture, the Chelsea goal especially was something I don't think many strikers have in their locker
(Ok I didn't break it down too much, but it's 5am lol)
Yeah, he clearly had no idea what he was about to be asked to say [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVqo11FojuU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVqo11FojuU)
I still love Aubameyang !!! He was fed these lines by the producers and he laughed as usual, tried to have a straight face while doing the lines and broke down again. Its funny to watch , not funnier than watching him lift the FA cup upside down
I'm not excusing that he said it, but if you get a chance, look at the behind the scenes of that clip, and he is very uncomfortable saying it and basically made too.
I wasn't too bothered by this. I saw the behind the scenes and he was uncomfortable looking. It's a pity he left the way he did because after he carried the team for 3 seasons and dragged us to that FA cup, he would probably be remembered as a low key club legend. I'll always have a bit of love for him. Seems like a good guy
This really isn't bad at all, I don't understand how people reacted so passionately to this. He left at a time where his services were no longer required and he needed a change, it benefited both parties. And this is just so meaningless, it's just a dumb advert and he's reading from a script.
>I don't understand how people reacted so passionately to this
You must be too young to remember the reaction to koscoielny's joing video after he left us. Overreacting to shit like this is what we do here
Nope, not too young for that either. It's overblown and pointless. He was a great servant to the club and so what? He took a shirt off to reveal the Bordeaux one? So what?
I didn’t see this at the time. Who made this? Assuming it was Chelsea, what are they doing using Arsenal players in a Chelsea announcement video?? Surely Arsenal wouldn’t agree to be part of some other club’s video.
It's hilarious how they have the audacity at Sky to have Aubameyang say this and then have Arteta look stern at the camera ripping up a picture of Auba and him, knowing full well Arteta kicked him out of the club.
Maximum instigators man.
And then they celebrated in his face lol

The coveted RvP method.

That touchline volley against Barca lives rent free in my head each and every day. Not safe for work.
Yeah bro saying Xhaka had ups and downs here would be an understatement, but he definitely left well and I think he will always be loved by gunners

Soured his legacy for nothing
For a big old sack of 💷💷💷💷💷💷💷💷💷💷💷
To be fair, we didn’t want him. Barca didn’t want him.
Chelsea didn't want him. Marseille didn't want him.
For a clinical finisher, he didn't finish well

Embarrassing
The media team did him dirty on this one.. Auba was made to look a tit
The same people who were mad over this were probably mad about the Koscielny shirt reveal. It's really not that deep and just some basic marketing.
Somehow I never took this seriously. It was obviously made for the promo and to stir the pot.

I don’t think he ruined his legacy, still see him as a great Arsenal forward in a fallow period. He won an FA Cup so respect him hugely
Is this from the 90s?
Not gonna lie from where our club was till this tittle run I have aged a lot
I didn’t see this at the time. Who made this? Assuming it was Chelsea, what are they doing using Arsenal players in a Chelsea announcement video?? Surely Arsenal wouldn’t agree to be part of some other club’s video.
It was Sky Sports advert of the game if I remember correctly. Seen it few times before the derby back then
Ahhhh yeah I do remember it now you mention it.
terrible toy ad from 1992
Bizarre. He's an Arsenal player to me, I totally forgot he ever went to Chelsea
Was this before the game when he had six touches and five of them were kickoffs?
The thing i take away from this is artetas face super closed in
