Season 7 of Aubameyang in the PL went like this:

DOESNT FACKING EXIST

Season 8 went like this:

STILL DOESNT FACKING EXIST, YOUR SCHOOL MATHS TEACHER NEEDS A SLAP

If the OP sets the argument for elite at the level that RVP or Sanchez, then I'd use that reasoning like everyone else on this thread has.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That was his opinion and not one I share, he was asking the question. It seems most dont know the meaning of the word elite.

Create a thread on it .... see how much people laugh at your claims.

If you dont fancy it I can do it for you and use you as sources for the Aub being elite argument?

lets see what the rest of Ja606 thinks?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Why dont you do it? I don't give a fack what you or the rest of ja606 thinks really. I care about referencing the OP in relation to exactly what put. Not about half or 8 seasons or whatever nonsense you've made up

In the 6 seasons that Aubameyang had played, which we are referencing. He had scored the following:

17/18 - 23 league goals
18/19 - 22 league goals
19/20 - 22 league goals
20/21 - 10 league goals
21/22 - 15 league goals
22/23 - 1 league goal
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I was asked to give EPL stats cos when we compared them to Haaland as per the original claim of them not being much difference when I gave his career stats in comparison people were not happy cos once again it proved my point.

So Mr Werner thought Aub was elite and pretty much the same as Haaland.... who else agrees with him?

Cos I literally told you why dont you create it as your the one claiming he is elite, but like I sid I will create one on your behalf if you want, again Im trying to give you the benefit of the doubt of creating it so you can word it more favourably in your defence. Cos im confident most will just laugh at your claim!

I can’t believe Lord Bendtner hasn’t been mentioned?

By his own admission, one of the best strikers in the world.

My view on elite player is a player that is gamechanger and player that stands out of others. At Arsenal, last player that was elite was Alexis. When you watched the game you knew he was the main man in that team. Auba doesn't have that effect. His stats are great, but he wasn't at that level for me

posted on 11/1/24

Didn't he change an FA Cup final? Or the Europa semi with his hat-trick?
Auba was definitely the main man from when he signed up to that final. Think what happened after has clouded the opinion.

Yes he did, nobody said he didn't have moments of greatness, but overall I think he is great player but not an elite

So, came in and scored 10 in 13, then back to back 20+ league seasons, plus game changing moments in big games, stood out massively as our best player... not sure how RvP - who had one big season - was elite at Arsenal but Auba wasn't by your own definitions.

There you go, like Premier League knew what to post. Football isn't just about stats. After you watch this, if you think Auba is on RvP level, you don't know football.

posted on 12/1/24

And RVP's stats would be much greater if he didn't have injury problems. Whenever he was fit, he was elite.

No, football is about match winning performances in big games like cup finals...
RvP averaged under 10 league goals a season in 7 seasons before his one outstanding season for us - his scoring record didn't even match up to Adebayor, Giroud etc.

Is Havertz elite then? He won Chelsea Champions league

posted on 12/1/24

Did he score 10 in 13, and then 2 x 20+ goal league seasons after already consistently high scoring seasons?

posted on 12/1/24

BTW, I would rather have 1 Champions League winning goal than 10 pleasing to the eye but inconsequential goals a season...

posted on 12/1/24

Havertz is well on course to beat the majority of RvPs seasons at Arsenal as well. His output at Chelsea was about the same as an average RvP season at Arsenal as well.

One, we are being told, was an elite striker for Arsenal, the other is a flop?

there are a few potential top strikers coming through.

Firstly Osimhen is elite IMO.

------

Considering the parameters you put on Auba, the fact you had said this about a striker who only once has bettered 14 league goals in a season is hilarious

You whole arguments on this thread have been full of contradictions.

I think if your talking about elite strikers just now he is in the conversation. him Kane and Haaland.

To me they are the the three in the conversation for elite strikers. Arguments can be made for all three.

He scored 26 league goals last season ... my comments were based on the season we had when I made those comments.

and last year he was in the conversation for elite players IMO, you dont agree?

prior to last season I wouldnt have considered elite think he finihsed 4th in the goden boot behind Kane, Mbappe and Haaland.

So yeah I do believe being in the top 3 strikers in the world can put you in the conversation of being elite.

So one season can make you elite?

for your career no. but it puts you in the picture for the here and now. but you were the one that saying in those two season Aub was elite.

so last season he was in the conversation for being considered elite yes and thats what I was basing my opinion on cos it was made on a thread talking about possible transfers in I assume?

if those comments were made on a thread discussing players whole careers and then my opinion would be different.
