Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was thrown into the deep end for Chelsea this Tuesday night as he made his debut for the Blues following his £10million summer transfer from Barcelona.
The former Arsenal striker was recently the victim of a home invasion in which he suffered a broken jaw when intruders allegedly stormed his house with weapons, handcuffed him and his wife and made off with jewellery.
As a result, Aubameyang wore a mask to protect his jaw as he led Chelsea's line in Croatia for the Champions League tie with Dinamo Zagreb in the hope of providing an attacking threat in the final third - something the Blues have lacked so far this season.
