The AS Saint-Etienne is delighted to see his star player back among the goals after the Gabon international ended his temporary baron spell in front of the goal to earn his side three massive points against SC Bastia on Sunday
AS Saint-Etienne proved too much for the relegation strugglers, Bastia, after they scored three goals against the visitors at home. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang returned to form in tremendous fashion and the coach is pleased with the performance of the 23-year-old.
While talking to reporters, Christophe Galtier stated that Les Verts have been in a fine form lately and that is a pleasing factor for everybody at the club. January has turned out to be a great month for the European hopefuls as Saint-Etienne are in a respectable
position in the Ligue 1 standings and are still in Cup competitions as well.
"We've finished off a very good month of January as we're still in the Cup competitions and still competing in the league despite a very bad December.”
On a question regarding Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, the boss said that the youngster was bound to get back among the goals and it was only a matter of time as he has proved this time again. The player was low on confidence because of several reasons but the
coach feels that it is totally normal considering the fact that the player is in his early twenties.
“The goal did Aubameyang good. I've often told him that the most important thing is to get chances. He came up against a very good http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mickaël-Landreau-c25513, who is always difficult to beat in one-on-ones. He only managed to beat Landreau at the third attempt.”
Galtier added that he is not sure whether the striker had some kind of doubts about himself or it is something else. However, the boss is pleased to see his start striker scoring again and has backed the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gabon-c2902 international to score on a regular basis in
the future.
“I don't know if he doubts himself, it doesn't seem like his sort of thing to do. He doesn't show it in his attitude but not scoring must have been annoying him."
