Journalist Stéphane Guy has expressed reservations regarding the bringing of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Olympique de Marseille.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang continues to score goals and assists in the jersey of Olympique de Marseille. With 27 goals and 11 goals in 46 appearances in all competitions, the Gabonese has an impressive record.

However, his performances are not unanimous. If the effectiveness of PEA is beyond doubt, some observers, like Stéphane Guy, question its influence on the Marseille game. For the French journalist, Aubameyang is certainly a “stats player”, but his contribution to the collective game sometimes leaves something to be desired in comparison with former Marseillais Alexis Sanchez.

“It remains debatable”

“Aubameyang not at the same level as the other players? I don’t agree with that, declared Stéphane Guy. Aubameyang is a stats player, he will always be a stats player. After his contribution to the game, even at the moment when he is banging like tonight, it remains questionable. The players weren’t in tune with Sanchez last year, but that’s not how I feel with Aubameyang. »

Despite these criticisms, Stéphane Guy still recognizes the undeniable qualities of the 34-year-old striker. “On the other hand, he is a player who has extraordinary statistics wherever he goes, every year. And stats are obviously important in football”he says.
