Piers Morgan furious with Mikel Arteta as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang bags Barcelona brace

dailystar.co.uk:

Piers Morgan has lashed out at Arsenal chief Mikel Arteta after Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang bagged a brace for Barcelona on Sunday.Arteta booted his former captain out of the club in January after Aubameyang was exiled from the team over a disciplinary breach.Despite being woefully out of form, Aubameyang's exit has left the Gunners desperately short on firepower after they failed to wrap up a deal for Dusan Vlahovic in January.And Morgan, who is a vocal Gunners fan, has hit out at Arteta's decision after Aubameyang marked his first league start for his new club by netting twice.

Aubemayang's goals inspired Barcelona to a stunning 4-1 win over Valencia.Morgan tweeted after the match: "Thrilled for @Auba.

Furious with @m8arteta for giving him away to do this elsewhere. What a terrible, TERRIBLE decision."His tweet isn't the first time that he's taken aim at the club after Aubameyang was axed last month.After the recent 1-0 win over Wolves, Morgan tweeted out that there were still glaring issues linked to Aubameyang's departure; namely the lack of a top striker and a proper captain.Do you think Arsenal's decision to give Aubameyang the boot was a mistake?

Let us know in the comments sectionAlexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah are the only recognised senior strikers still at the club after Aubameyang's exit.Unfortunately, the duo have struggled to impress this season - with Lacazette and Nketiah bagging just five goals apiece.After he joined Barca, Aubameyang hinted that his exit was solely down to Arteta.The Gabon star told reporters: "I think it was only with him and then he took this decision, he wasn’t happy and that’s it.
