Speaking to Sky Sports News, former Arsenal striker Kevin Campbell said: “Something is awry. Something isn’t right.
“Right up until the [Brentford] game they [Aubameyang and Lacazette] were going to be in the starting line-up and then all of a sudden they are out. If they are ill let us know what the illness is.
“I just feel like there is some infighting going on at some stage. Arsenal don’t need this because there is some serious work to be done [in on-field performances].”
