Chelsea hero Gus Poyet is convinced Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is set for a big season.

Poyet is confident that the striker can provide the goals that the team badly need.

"I thought his first 20 minutes were outstanding, the movements, the way he ran in behind, the timing, I thought he would score three that game, then Chelsea lost," Poyet told Midnite of Auba's debut at Dinamo Zagreb last week.

“Aubameyang is a top striker, when you're in control of a game and players like Mount can find him, he will score goals.

“Aubameyang will be important for Chelsea this season."
