ARSENAL youngster Bukayo Saka has revealed club captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang can get ‘quite angry’ if a teammate makes a mistake.
Aubameyang, 31, has been dropped from the Gunners team for the North London Derby against Tottenham for ‘disciplinary reasons’.

But before that news broke, his colleague Saka already spoke about how he can sometimes have a temper.
Speaking about Aubameyang, he told beIN Sports: “Every time I played with him I’ve always had so much confidence.
“Sometimes he would tell you, you would have to pass to him and if you make a mistake then he can be quite angry.
“But the game where I scored my first goal for Arsenal against Frankfurt, before the game he said to me, ‘Bukayo, you know you’re very good player. If you’re there in front of goal and you want to shoot – shoot! I’m not going to say anything’.
“My parents love him so much as well!”
Aubameyang has scored 14 goals in 29 appearances for Mikel Arteta’s side so far this season.

He has netted 31 and 29 goals in each of his last two campaigns, a record which has made him the talisman for Arsenal.
However, the Gunners have struggled as a team this season and currently sit in tenth place.
They go into the game seven points off rivals Spurs, who are looking to strengthen their bid for a top four place.
Tottenham are also hoping to win at the Emirates in the Premier League for the first time since 2010.
