It's hard but it's what you expect of a coach of that stature and a big club.”Aubameyang has impressed in the Gunners’ fold since his club-record arrival from Borussia Dortmund in January. The Gabon international scored 10 goals in 13 Premier League appearances last season.And the two-time African Footballer of the Year who turned 42 on Wednesday feels the 29-year-old’s form in front of goal can be crucial for the Gunners’ success next term. "If he can perform, if it's a good season for him they have a chance to win the league,” he continued."Aubameyang is very, very good. Last season was his first season; now he has adjusted to the Premier League. He's been playing well with the new coach and his team-mates; this season is going to be his season if he works for it."Arsenal begin their 2018-19 season with a game against Manchester City on August 12.</blockquote>
