Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang may dip in and out of games, but his Arsenal scoring record can't be questioned
The Gabon international arrived at the Emirates Stadium in the January transfer window from Borussia Dortmund and marked his debut with a goal in the 5-1 thrashing of Everton in the Premier League
From there has goals haven't stopped coming. He finished last season with 10 goals from 13 appearances in the top flight of English football - prompting supporters to wonder how different Arsene Wenger's final term as manager would have been had Aubameyang arrived six months earlier
Having featured for Dortmund in Europe during the first-half of the 2017/2018 campaign, the 29-year-old was ineligible for the Gunners' Europa League campaign
That's not the case this season and Aubameyang netted twice in the 4-2 win over FC Vorskla on matchday one a couple of months ago
Those were his third and fourth goals of the campaign, a total which now stands at 10 after his winner against Bournemouth on Sunday afternoon
Stretching to get a toe on Sead Kolasinac's cross to end his four-game drought, Aubameyang brought up his 20th goal across all competitions for the north London outfit in just his 31st appearance
What is most impressive about the stat is when it's compared to how long it took Thierry Henry and Ian Wright - the club's most prolific goalscorers - to reach that total
As pointed out by AFC Gally on Twitter, it took both players 40 games to score 20 goals for the Arsenal
Of course Henry and Wright went on to win trophies with the Gunners, not to mention breaking a number of records along the way and are still very much revered amongst supporters
Aubameyang probably doesn't have enough time on his side to emulate the club legends in terms of overall goals, but the company he's keeping certainly bodes well in the immediate future
