Why did Aubameyang go off against Southampton?

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored his sixth goal in seven Premier League appearances on Sunday - but he didn’t finish the game.

Our record signing was replaced by Alex Lacazette in the second half, and Arsene Wenger explained his decision when he spoke to Arsenal.com.

“No [he’s not injured],” said the boss.

“He looked a bit jaded in the end and I wanted to give Lacazette 20 minutes as well. Overall it worked well.”
