Frequently would seem to be the answer to this.
The pair have 43 goals and 20 assists between them this season and while Emery has handed more minutes to Aubameyang (3,499 to Laca’s 3,057) it has been the Frenchman who has really impressed, as evidenced by his selection as Arsenal player of the season.
The pair are real-life friends and that shows on the pitch, so how should they be used?
