Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang misses more big chances than other strikers in the Premier League despite scoring 19 goals in the division this season.
It’s not news to Arsenal fans that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang misses big chances. It happens every game.
However, do you know that he’s missed more big chances than goals scored?
Most missed chances in Premier League 18/19
20 – Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
18 – Callum Wilson
17 – Gabriel Jesus
15 – Mohamed Salah
15 – Jamie Vardy

Since arriving at Arsenal, Auba has scored a total of 34 goals (with 11 assists) in 59 games.
That’s a goal involvement rate of 1.31.
To compare, Harry Kane has a GIR 1.31 while Mo Salah has a GIR of 1.04 and Sergio Aguero 1.12, albeit with a larger sample size of games for those three who are also not in their first full season in England.
As long as Auba keeps finding the back of the net as regularly as he does, he can miss all the other chances he wants.
