CHELSEA PLAYERS LET DOWN AUBAMEYANG - JIMMY FLOYD HASSELBAINK
Hasselbaink claimed that the Chelsea players let down Aubameyang during the team's loss to Arsenal
Former Chelsea forward Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink alleged that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's teammates failed him during Sunday's 1-0 Premier League loss to Arsenal.
In the 64 minutes he played for Chelsea against Arsenal before being replaced by Armando Broja in the second half, Aubameyang only had eight touches.
But according to Hasselbaink, there were a few instances throughout the game when Aubameyang made a strong run but was unable to receive the ball.
He emphasized that if Kai Havertz had not passed the ball to an open area in the first half, the former Barcelona attacker might have had a good chance.
"We were talking about Aubameyang's having only scored one goal [in the league] so far," Hasselbaink told Premier League Productions.
"But he [did] everything right [in the game against Arsenal]. He was in the middle of the goal, he stopped and checked.
"He only needed that yard, that yard that [Manchester City's Erling] Haaland gets.
"But his [Haaland] teammates find him, and he just has to find the corner of the goal.
"That's the difference."
