Aubameyang wins player of the month award

Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been named the Premier League player for October.

The Arsenal striker scored five goals to win the award. One of the goals was nominated for the Carling Goal of the Month award.  The Gabon international scored in each of his three matches in October.

He got a brace after coming off the bench in the 5-2 victory at Fulham, scored twice again as a substitute in the 3-1 home win over Leicester City, and once in the 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.

“I’m just trying to improve every day, trying to work a lot but I’m happy to be here in the Premier League and I try to do my best,” said the 29-year-old. “I can do better.”

The Gabon international’s goals helped Arsenal stretch their unbeaten Premier League run to eight matches, and he has his sights set on a top-four finish.

“We have to continue on the way we are doing things,” he said. “I hope we will finish in the first four. It would be good to qualify for the Champions League.”
