Nothing changed after that although Newcastle managed to minimise the defeat but they could not force points for this week because they did lose to Chelsea.
Honestly in this match I didn't really expect such a result for Newcastle actually because after all with their extraordinary performance last season then for this season there is more hope for Newcastle to be able to get better results but it looks like Howe is too complacent with the squad he has especially with the signing of Tolani who has given good happiness at the beginning of the season it turned into a disaster for Newcastle at this time.
With the current conditions, it seems that the management of Newcastle should try to overhaul in terms of squad and coaching because after all this is what they really need with a strong push of money from the middle east I think it is not too suitable if Newcastle is in the middle of the EPL standings.

Newcastle's performance has been down this season and they are completely different compared to last season. I think they need to improve their squad especially as the team's performance has been unreliable so far, but I know the impact of injuries to several players has also changed them.

Newcastle lost to Chelsea with a score of 3-2 when Newcastle could dominate the match, but they did not have many goal opportunities compared to Chelsea. Of course it was a difficult match because basically Chelsea played well at home, so Chelsea deserved to win it. Whatever it is, Eddie Howe needs to think about how to increase the depth of his squad next season. Newcastle must not allow things like this to continue to happen which in turn makes their league chances drop low.

Everything became different after they lost a number of key players due to injury, their midfielder Tonali also had to be sidelined due to a ban from playing for 10 months. It is understandable why they experienced a decline in performance, focusing completely on the Premier League after being eliminated in the Champions League did not make Newcastle stable and perform better.

Chelsea is very ambitious to secure full points, because they want to penetrate the top 10 of the standings, they managed to make good use of the home game. Beating the Blues is a tough task, even though Pochettino fleet experienced more ups and downs in performance, but Newcastle managed to put up impressive resistance at Stamford Bridge yesterday.

It's true, Newcastle needs to overhaul the depth of its squad next season, so that it can compete again in the top four of the standings. In the remainder of this season, their realistic target is to finish on the European track, I think this is still possible. Eddie Howe is required to find the best solution, how to continue to be consistent in the future.
