Frank Lampard has made feelings clear on Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang amid Chelsea row

It's fair to say that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's switch to Chelsea hasn't exactly worked out for either party. However, the former Arsenal talisman could be handed an unlikely reprieve by the Blues' new caretaker manager, Frank Lampard.

Aubameyang has made just five first-team appearances since the turn of the year and was once again excluded from the Chelsea squad by first-team coach Bruno Saltor, who took charge of Tuesday night's drab 0-0 draw with Liverpool after Graham Potter was sacked.

And while few would have backed the former Barcelona ace to salvage his Stamford Bridge career, the arrival of Lampard on a deal until the end of the season could give the 33-year-old an opportunity to muscle his way back into the first-team fold.
