Obviously going to Real.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang| ESPN: Move to PSG very close
- Thread starter MyOnlySolskjaer
- Start date
Should have kept his mouth shut.
That sounds very similar to an older quote of his.
He's been throbbing for a Real Madrid move for at least a year now. Almost any time he's spoken out about moving it's always Real Madrid related.
Don't think he takes Real to a higher level at all. Would not be the best signing, but it's Real.
Imo this is hugely disrespectful to Dortmund.
Exactly I can't understand any United fan wanting a player who couldn't make it more obvious he doesn't want to play for us
Hard to know. He's a slightly better player imo but doesn't fit in as much as Benzema who is an excellent player to have next to Ronaldo/Bale
Terrible attitude. Do not want.
Too much "I". There is no "I" in "TEAM".

Bundesliga is more exciting than La Liga in my opinion.
There is in win.
Actually, he is a very nice and hard working guy.
...
Would Madrid even want him?
I don't know why people rate him so highly as every time I've seen him, he disappoints me. He's nowhere near to the top level, miles behind the previous Dortmund main striker.
The only exceptional thing about him is his pace, otherwise he needs tonnes of chances to score, cannot dribble in narrow spaces, not great at holding up the ball. He is only suited to pure counter attacking football which we rarely play as most teams often sit deep against us.
Tbf, I see this common theme of rating very highly about most Dortmund players. They have rarely ever won a trophy since 2012, in fact. they were nowhere close to win a trophy, yet their players get so highly rated, you'd think they are playing UCL final every season.

Then you haven't seen him enough to form a such a wrong opinion. Miles behind Lewa? What are you, Polish?
Auba has a speed, pretty good at holding the ball too. Consistent scorer and Tuchel did not play counter attacking football last year, where Auba scored tonn of goals and became BL player of the year.
Just imagine the pace between Martial, Miki, Auba and Rashford.
That is statistically false. Aubameyang has actually a pretty damn good conversion rate for 2 1/2 seasons now (a better one than Lewandowski for example, which makes this aspect the only one he is superior in besides pace).
Huh? We stood in a final in every season since then.
In 2013 we were the only team in Europe in the CL, which could actually challenge a serious Bayern side, that ripped Juventus and Barca apart beforehand.
In 2014 we lost the Cup final vs. Bayern after extra time after not been given a regular goal in the first 90 minutes.
Even in Klopp´s last dissapointing season 2014/2015 we reached the Cup final (after beating Bayern in the Semis).
The last final vs. Bayern (2016) was lost in the penalty shootout.
I'm talking about the matches I have seen him play and I only watch Dortmund in big matches and in big matches he needs plenty of chances to score a goal, may be he makes up for that against poor teams which makes his stat look better on the paper.
I don't consider the domestic cup final with much high regard, UCL and the league competition is what matters to me. In those two competitions they have not really set the world alight.
I have mainly seen him against top teams and he fails almost every time in those matches. He scores against ordinary teams, but against good teams he gets nullified. He has never managed to produce a performance like Lewa did against Madrid in 2013.
No, I'm not Polish. I just honestly feel Auba is vastly overrated as many other Dortmund players who all failed (except Lewa) when they moved to bigger clubs.

Not sure about that. To me, Sahin was used wrongly in Liverpool and the same with Kagawa here. Pep killed Gotze and Miki seems doing great so far. Hummels shouod be fine in Bayern too. Gundo as well for City.
Go to Real... Do not want..
Translation: Being able to score for fun against 90% of the league and guarenteed inclusion in team of the year is what excites me.
Yes! Let's turn this thread into another episode of my league is so much more better than your league! Please!
Sahin, Kagawa were overrated tbh and don't get me started on Gotze, whom I never rated. Physically all of them were found wanting outside of teams tailor-made for them.
Mkhi, Lewa are type of players who would thrive in any league, anywhere. I'd say that Dembele would be the same. Reus is another who in his prime would have handled any league. You have to look at the physical capacity of the player. On that front, PEA wouldn't struggle in any league.. but I do get why some people think he isn't as good as some make out, he's very reliant on those physical attributes but to be fair he's put them to great use in the Bundesliga.
I'm far from convinced about him, I'm not yet sure he has improved his finishing to the extent that he can be a top top player. He will probably stay at United just like Mata is staying, achieving mediocrity along with the club itself.
He was the best player in Germany last season.Mata is a great player, as well. Very dependable and always has a goal or assist in him. There are a lot of 'mediocre' players, he isn't one of them.
But there's "ME".

Didn't Kagawa win player of the year the two years before he came to us?
Um... have you seen his goal scoring record? Maybe that's why. He's a top 10 striker and willing to leave. He's also a terribly annoying dick for talking about leaving 24/7 and I'd be pi**ed if I were a BVB supporter.
lol..his scoring records mean nothing if they are against ordinary teams and not against top teams and if he does little apart from scoring...I want a Suarez type striker who can dribble, perform against top teams...I have no proof that Aubameyang can match Suarez.
I don't think there are any available strikers out there who can give us what Suarez would though. Griezmann might come close but he doesn't usually play as a lone striker so his qualities are slightly different.
The typical Lacazette FIFA Ultimate Team kind of player or is this guy the real deal?
Haven't seen much of him.
Haven't seen much of him.
Suarez is not obtainable and Auba is not much (if any) worse than Griezmann. Granted, I'm not as high on him as most others.
Apart from having searing pace there's nothing special about his game. Hope we stay well clear cos I believe Dortmund are gonna sting someone very hard on this potential transfer.
Aubameyang
Martial - Griezmann - Mkhitaryan
Pogba - Some undiscovered god at defending.
Shaw - New CB - Bailly - Valencia

You can always count on broken fax machines.
I'd take him. Good header of the ball, pacey as hell and decent technically. Great goal scoring record. With him, potentially Griezmann, Mkhi and Martial we would have lightning pace up front.
He's hanging off the end of Madrid's big white dick, so I'd be very surprised if he ends up here.
Good player though, would improve us massively.

Rojo is surely perfect in that missing LCB spot?
This, exactly this. No point in buying such a limited player.
If there is none available who's near to the top quality then we should only buy or promote young supremely gifted strikers, not some old mediocre players like Aubameyang. Our team should only consist of absolute top draw established players (Suarez, Neymar, Aguero, Bale, younger versions of Robben & Ribery etc. if not Messi/Ronaldo level) or supremely talented youngsters (Martial/Rashford), no point in having mediocre players like Mkhitaryan, Mata etc.
