Yep, it seems that there are some special periods where Chelsea go straight back down in terms of trends even though they have been quite positive and the results of the previous few matches don't really matter for them because no matter how good their previous performance is when their period comes they will deteriorate quickly.
With this week's defeat Chelsea can't help but accept that they are still not optimal and need a lot of changes to be made.
On the other hand, for Newcastle this match will be a good capital for them to face the next few matches especially for next week against PSG this is clearly a spirit booster for them.
I didn't expect Chelsea to concede a humiliating 4-1 defeat to Newcastle. Chelsea have performed very well in the last two matches. They scored 4 goals each against strong teams like City and Tottenham. They drew 4-4 against City, so I expected Chelsea to win against Newcastle. But the Chelsea team was defeated by a big margin in this match due to bad defense.
After falling behind by 1 goal in just 13 minutes, Chelsea was able to equalize the match in 10 minutes. But in the second half we only saw the power of the Newcastle players. Chelsea could not make any good attack in the second half. And after a win in this match, Newcastle are sixth in the table. The team may be able to move to fourth or fifth place in the table.
That happened because indeed our expectations of Chelsea were quite large after the positive results they achieved in the previous few matches but in the end surprises always happen including in this match. I also had slightly higher expectations because I expected a draw in this match but in the end my expectations had to be in vain because of Chelsea's unpredictable performance.
The red card received by Reece James also made them suffer even more where they had to try to reduce the gap but with less players they had to concede the ball back and had to be willing to lose badly in this match.
