Former Arsenal goalkeeper David Seaman criticized Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang of Chelsea and urged fans to boo him.Information Guide Nigeria
After taunting his former club in the buildup to Sunday’s Chelsea-Arsenal match, Aubameyang was substituted after 64 minutes as the Blues lost 1-0.
The 33-year-old, who left north London in January after a dispute with manager Mikel Arteta and was stripped of the club’s captaincy, was subsequently benched and did not enter Wednesday’s Carabao Cup loss.
Since joining the Blues in the summer following a six-month stay with Barcelona, Aubameyang has scored just three goals in 12 games.

Seaman is not shocked by Aubameyang’s poor form and was upset that the Gabon international did not receive more boos on Sunday at Stamford Bridge, since Arsenal supporters were still celebrating their goal when he was substituted.
‘The Aubameyang situation… his last season at Arsenal is exactly what it’s like now [at Chelsea],’ he told Seaman Says.
‘The fact that Barcelona let him go tells you everything. I’m not surprised [he is struggling].
‘I’m not surprised the way he is playing. That’s what he been like for quite a while now. He does it in flashes, he doesn’t do it for long enough.
‘The only disappointing this about the weekend is that when Arsenal scored, he sneaked off.
‘I wanted the Arsenal fans to proper boo him. They didn’t get that chance as he got hooked off straight away as soon as we scored and all the Arsenal fans were too busy celebrating.’JAMB Result
