Timo Werner should be SCRAPPED by Chelsea according to Gabriel Agbonlahor, who urges Blues to sign 'big striker' to replace 'erratic' German

Chelsea should dip back into the market for a 'big, big striker' and give-up on Timo Werner, according to Gabriel Agbonlahor, after a tough first season for the German.

The 25-year-old went missing once more in the FA Cup final on Saturday, leading the line in a talented Blues line-up but failing to capitalise on their overwhelming dominance.

Werner arrived for £53m last summer but under both Frank Lampard and Thomas Tuchel he hasn't shown much of the prolific RB Leipzig version of himself.

'I've tried to give him the benefit of the doubt as it's his first season, but the more I'm seeing of him he's making the wrong decision,' former Aston Villa striker Agbonlahor told talkSPORT.
