Summary of the half… Chelsea get an early goal through the good work of Gusto and Palmer down the right. Chelsea continue to get joy down the right as Gordon refuses to track back, Eddie Howe spots this and makes a change and it works, Chelsea can longer attack Burn 2 on 1. Newcastle start to grow into the match, slowly starting to control the game and Pochettino does nothing but watch as it unfolds in front of him. Eventually the inevitable happens and Newcastle get the equaliser and Pochettino continues to watch on without changing anything.

The story of the second half will be… Newcastle coming out, possibly with another tactical tweak and Chelsea will come out the same. Newcastle will be on top and the pressure will grow. Pochettino will continue to look on, but unmoved, no changes happening. Eventually Newcastle get the goal to go ahead and finally Pochettino reacts, Silva on for Cucurella, Gusto to LB and Chalobah to RB, forcing the entire back line to readjust and have no clue who is doing what. He will also bring on Mudryk for Sterling and nobody will notice any difference. Newcastle will score a 3rd.

Told you.

Amazing work from Jackson for the third. Brilliant player. 

Did really well setting up Sterling too for what should’ve been a goal. He’s had a good match and arguably he’s a player you can see improvement in.

Not our best performance, but in the moments we were good, we were very good. It’s the inconsistency that kills us though. Good win, nice to see Mudryk get a goal.

Palmer was fantastic tonight, but he usually is.

Gallagher worked his backside off as always.

Jackson did really well tonight, he isn’t the most conventional player, but he causes problems and works hard.

Gusto gets better with every game.

Mudryk did well when he came on.

Sterling is a nightmare, sell him.

Caicedo and Enzo still not convincing.
