I don’t know why Moises Caicedo was benched but a player like Caicedo should not be left on the bench if he is not injured because we can all see the difference in their midfield compared to other matches he started.

I can’t say for sure but I can still recall hearing over the commentary that, he happens to be the last returning player from the international break on the Chelsea team. That could mean, not having to be properly filled in on the team tactics and perhaps, leaving him on the bench was by some means to discipline the player.

On top of that and recent performance for Caicedo I wouldn’t say he was just too great or his coming off the bench could have been part of what resulted to this defeat. I can still recall his first game where his mistake caused Chelsea a goal, a few games after that where he struggled and even games where he had to be on the starting lineup and Chelsea still gets to struggle.

Chelsea is a team that lacks consistency on their side and while they still try to fine a rhythm for there team, you can expect whichever opposition to capitalize on that, cause them to make a mistake and use that to punish the team. There were just lots of mistakes from them today and each of them was punished.

In this instance, the lack of consistency is likely caused by the younger team, which management does not seem to understand. Newcastle is slightly different from Manchester City with the experience in the squad. The team started a new central back and new defensive midfielder that should come later in the Game.

If you do aware chelsea has made some mistakes even before the game was starting. Replacing caicedo which has been fully blind with chukwu is the worst thing. There have been many complaints for poch regarding this decision. Chukwu was just recovering again from his injury and how can he has been chosen to be the main started of chelsea instead of caicedo? this is the first blunder being made by poch. There is also another one like let garbage jackson to play till let game.
This guy was a lazy striker and chelsea needs also to replace him once he would not be performing so well. Pochettino shall have replaced him since the second half was just begun.

Im wondering how long pochettino will be learning from his mistake. Poche like never listen to the fans. It's very bad to see him used the wrong line up.
I would rather than replace number 16 with caicedo since the first half. This guy was making the performance of chelsea even worst. How can chelsea go up again if the club keeps make another mistake?
