Arsenal legend Ian Wright has advised Chelsea interim manager Frank Lampard to recall the club’s flop, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, to the squad.
The Blues are finding it extremely difficult to find the back of the net and currently sitting 11th in the Premier League.
With just eight more league games after Saturday’s defeat to Wolves, it is now clear that their only hope of playing in the Champions League next season is by first of all beating Real Madrid in the quarter-finals of the competition on Wednesday.
Aubameyang was omitted from the Champions League squad by Graham Potter but Wright believed he should be recalled for league games.
“The last time Lampard was at Chelsea, I remember him liking Aubameyang,” Wright said.
“He will score the chances Chelsea are creating right now.
“If Chelsea start Aubameyang up front with Sterling or Mudryk or Felix – they’ve got so much to choose from – I swear to God, Chelsea can absolutely cook some teams.”
