Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's pass success rate at Marseille: 0.8
As the season comes to a close, it is time to reflect on one of the most successful seasons in Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's career. The Gabonese forward has been in top form this season, scoring 25 goals and providing 14 assists in all competitions. However, his performance was not without its ups and downs.
One of the standout performances came against Lens in January when he scored three goals and provided two assists in a 7-0 victory for Marseille. This was the highest-scoring match of Aubameyang's career and showed just how dangerous he can be when given the chance to score.
However, there were also some low points during the season. In November, Aubameyang missed a crucial penalty in a 2-1 defeat to Lille, which could have put Marseille out of reach of the title. Despite this setback, Aubameyang bounced back with a stunning goal against Nice in March that helped secure a win and keep Marseille in contention for the title.
Despite his impressive goalscoring record, Aubameyang struggled with his passing accuracy at Marseille. He had a pass success rate of only 0.8% in Ligue 1 this season, which is well below average for a professional footballer. This lack of precision in the final third of the pitch may have contributed to Marseille's struggles in recent weeks.
Overall, Aubameyang's performances this season have been mixed, but he remains a key player for Marseille. His ability to score goals is undeniable, but his lack of precision in distribution will need to improve if he wants to continue playing at the highest level. With a new manager and a strong squad ahead of them next season, Marseille will hope to build on their success this season and compete for honours once again.
