'Anonymous' - Arsenal fans send Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang message after poor Chelsea display

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's ineffective performance against Arsenal will have, undoubtedly, satisfied many Gunners fans as Mikel Arteta's side returned to the top of the Premier League.

Aubameyang faced his former club for the first time on Sunday after completing an acrimonious departure from north London in January.

His involvement in the encounter had been much-discussed prior to kick-off, with debate fuelled by a controversial BT Sport advert in which he declared: "Arsenal, nothing personal, I’m back, I’m blue, I’m ready."

However, the Gabonese attacker's display flattered to deceive as he was eventually substituted for 21-year-old academy graduate Armando Broja by Chelsea boss Graham Potter.

Gabriel Magalhaes's close-range finish would, ultimately, prove to be the difference between the two sides, as Arsenal continued their superb Premier League campaign under Arteta.

Here's how Arsenal fans reacted to Aubameyang's display on social media...

@LongyWTID - Aubameyang subbed off after being anonymous haha.

@tyblackaby_ - #Aubameyang really did that BT ad only to touch the ball 3 times and be subbed off for some bloke from Albania

@DailyCannon - The only thing Aubameyang did against Arsenal before being subbed off was get booked

@Lutthorr - Aubameyang subbed off, advantage Chelsea

@Biola_Carter - Aubameyang's face after he was subbed off... Meme material

@JojoBamfo - So Aubameyang did all the promo just for him to be subbed off

@Chr1sMadden - Nothing personal, Aubameyang. But you did nothing, and got subbed off for a Southampton benchwarmer. Fraud

@BigEagzy - Aubameyang: Arteta can’t manage big stars. Also Auba gets subbed by Broja in London Derby

@Taylor_Tweets_ - Arteta was on the pitch more than Aubameyang today!

@Wajirstweep - Aubameyang has been hooked out in the 60th minute. Man is finished. #CHEARS #AFC #COYG
