‘He’s very ambitious, focused, hungry to play for us, hungry to prove a point, still,’ said the manager of his striker. There were no issues yesterday when he trained and I hope there will not be today. So we’re happy for him to prove a point tomorrow. I think he could maybe start, but I think he cannot play 90 minutes. ‘I can say he will be a big addition to us,’ said Kovacic. So we’re looking forward to having him in our squad.

Thomas Tuchel's side laboured to another poor performance as Aubameyang made his debut for his new team in their Champions League clash in Croatia.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang isn’t a Chelsea material. @GunnerClive: Aubameyang is way past his best . The team is a mess. In fact he was past his best a year ago. Tuchel's side laboured in attack once more and despite a lively start, once Mislav Orsic opened the scoring, Aubameyang's impact became less and less noticeable. He was awarded a first start in Croatia but couldn't help his side find an answer to their goalscoring woes.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang played his first match for Chelsea following his transfer from Barcelona, just a week after he was the victim of a home invasion ...

Aubameyang attempted to forge an opportunity for himself on 10 minutes when he collected the ball out right and sprinted down the wing with it. Aubameyang's next contribution came on nine minutes when Havertz collected the ball out left, reached the byline and fired a cross into the area. Aubameyang was able to tap the chance home, but Chilwell was in an offside position when the ball was played forward and the goal was ruled out. The striker eventually got another touch of the ball on 40 minutes when he received the ball in the box with his back to goal, but Dino Peric stood his ground and showed Aubameyang no way past. Aubameyang's final contribution of the first half came on 45 minutes when Chilwell found the striker in the area but he failed to take the ball down effectively, with it bouncing away and the chance coming to nothing. On the 20-minute mark, Aubameyang had the opportunity to attack a header after the ball was floated into the box but the area was crowded and although the striker made contact he was unable to get any power on his effort.

Chelsea were stunned away at Dinamo Zagreb losing 1-0 to the Champions League minnows courtesy of Mislav Orsic's first half strike.

He had a chance in extra time but looped his header miles wide of the goal after a scramble at a free-kick. He then played the second half in central midfield but roamed from his position to try to find openings. His cross to Aubameyang in the 47th minute was dangerous after good wing play. He was far from the worst culprit in his home country. He was booked for dissent and the opposition tried to get him sent off after his frustration began to show. He then gave the ball away for Mislav Orsic’s opening goal. His long-range shot at the end of the match was well saved by Livakovic. Still, he started incredibly brightly on the right wing, with a proper striker leading the line. Aubameyang looked sluggish in Zagreb on his debut. He couldn’t do much with the goal which was well taken. He was booked for a heavy challenge late on.

The latest in a long list of players to don the dreaded No. 9 shirt at Chelsea, can Pierre Emerick Aubameyang break the jynx?

Yes, there is no doubt that Pierre Emerick Aubameyang is a short-term solution for the Blues. Aubameyang and Chelsea feel like the perfect marriage. A player like Aubameyang is likely to put at least one if not more of those chances away and that game is an example of why Chelsea desperately needed a traditional No.9. In Reece James and Marc Cucurella/ Ben Chilwell, Chelsea have one of the deadliest fullback pairings in the entire league. What people forgot though was the insane number of chances that the Blues had to put the game to bed much earlier, which they failed to take. This clearly shows that he is just the kind of player that Chelsea need in front of goal, someone who knows his way inside the box and can get on the end of balls and finish clinically. Barcelona were struggling last season in the absence of a natural striker and found themselves languishing midtable when they took the punt on Aubameyang. He was deemed finished by the Arsenal fans but Barcelona decided to give the Gabonese striker a new lease of life. Lukaku was expected to be the player to break the curse, but he has instead joined a large list of illustrious names to fall short. The 33-year-old is coming here on the back of an excellent yet short stint in Spain. The No.9 has been a cursed shirt to be worn at Stamford Bridge for many years now, and the Blues will be hoping that their latest addition, 9 for Chelsea, can Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang break the curse?
