Ian Wright Offers a Solution to Chelsea's Problems, Saying "He Will Score the Opportunities Chelsea Are Generating Right Now"
After the club named Frank Lampard as Graham Potter's interim replacement until the end of the current campaign, the Chelsea leadership chose to postpone Graham Potter's permanent replacement until the summer.
The Chelsea veteran faces a difficult task in calming the situation and containing the mayhem that is currently occurring at Stamford Bridge.
The West London club has struggled to score goals consistently during the season, but Ian Wright, a former Arsenal player, thinks Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang might help the team.
Calls for the recall of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Frank Lampard
Ian Wright implores the Chelsea manager to recall the striker
Only 29 goals have been scored by Chelsea in 30 Premier League games this season.
The club's struggles in front of goal were emphasized by the wasted opportunities in the most recent 0-0 stalemate with Liverpool.
Ian Wright was convinced that Aubameyang can end the team's goal-scoring issues on the Wrighty's House podcast: "He will score the opportunities Chelsea are producing right now." Chelsea can definitely cook some teams, I swear to God.
Wright also noted that Lampard is a supporter of the Gabon striker. I recall Lampard liking Aubameyang from the last time he was at Chelsea.
Due to his exclusion from Chelsea's European squad, he will be unable to play in their Champions League quarterfinal matchup against Real Madrid.
Aubameyang's Potential Contributions to the Chelsea Team
Chelsea needs goals to move up the league standings as they are currently in 11th place.
During his time at Emirates Stadium, the former Arsenal striker established himself as one of the most productive, tallying 92 goals in 163 games across all competitions.
Aubameyang has three goals in 19 games since joining Stamford Bridge on the last day of the transfer window.
A team that struggles to score goals in every game would benefit from having a motivated, effective Aubameyang on the field.
Given that his movement is one of his well-known attributes in addition to his pace, he would appear to fit into any front-three combination, making him a perfect fit for Chelsea.
That will be a welcome boost for a struggling club if Lampard can get the Gabonese striker back to his best.
