3mbet Alexandre Lacazette is confident he can form a potent partnership with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang at Arsenal this season.Both players are going into their second season with the Gunners, with Lacazette having joined from Lyon for £52.7m last summer, while Aubameyang was signed last January for £60m from Borussia Dortmund.

The signing of Aubameyang led to questions about whether the pair could play in the same side but Lacazette says he was never concerned about his role in the team."I never said Aubameyang's arrival was bad for me, only people in the press said it was bad," said Lacazette, who scored twice in Arsenal's win against Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday.

"I was happy because I knew I could play with him. 3mbet I didn't see him as a rival more than a team-mate, so since the beginning I was happy about his signature."Of course, it's good that we have a good relationship off the pitch. If people are good off the pitch, on the pitch it will be easier to play."Lacazette scored 17 goals in 39 appearances in all competitions in his first season at Arsenal.

That was down from 36 goals in 39 appearances in his final season at Lyon and Lacazette admits he was frustrated not to find the net more."Arsene [Wenger] talked to me a lot, I watched videos, and I trained more. 3mbet Sometimes you can do everything but it's only about a little bit of luck," Lacazette said."I know it was my first season so I can't be too hard on myself, even if I wanted to score more."

pic5678 Wayne Rooney is delighted to have reinvigorated DC United's push in the MLS after a third gritty victory in eight days.It has been an exhausting but satisfying week for the former Everton and Manchester United striker, helping his new team overcome New England Revolution 2-0 on Sunday to follow up victories over Orlando and Portland.

pic5678 Having earned 18 points over the first five months of the MLS season, DC United are now just two points off seventh-place New England and six behind the play-off spots.Captain Rooney, who has played throughout the last three matches bar four minutes said: "In the first half we played some of the best football you'll see in the league.

"The second half was probably a better half for us because it was tougher. We dug in, we kept a clean sheet. It was a good performance all around."I think what you're seeing now is teams respecting us a bit more. I think in previous games, New England have pressed a lot - today you could see their hesitance in doing that.

pic5678 "They left the space for us to get on the ball. I think you're seeing teams showing that little bit more respect to us, and New York Red Bulls [on Monday] I'm sure they'll have more to think about than what they did last time."
