Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang: 'Every Arsenal player is 100% committed'

Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is optimistic that the Gunners' 6-0 thrashing of West Bromwich Albion has given the team something to build on for the rest of the season.

After opening the new campaign with back-to-back 2-0 defeats to Brentford and Chelsea, Arsenal cruised to a crushing success over a youthful Baggies XI at The Hawthorns on Wednesday night.

Aubameyang's first start of the season saw him take home the match ball after scoring a hat-trick, and the skipper has vowed to make the Arsenal fans happy after a "tough" start to the season.

Speaking to Sky Sports News after the game, Aubameyang said: "It is a strange feeling. I'm just happy that today we won the game, this is good to build the confidence of the team. We know we have had a tough start to the season.

"The only thing I can say is that the commitment of every player is always there, 100%. We will try to give our best to give the fans what they want - winning games. It was a good game today."

Arsenal now prepare for a daunting trip to Premier League champions Manchester City on Saturday, aiming to record their first points of the Premier League season.
