Howe shares injury update

Eddie Howe also shared an update on Anthony Gordon and Dan Burn.

Speaking to Sky Sports, he said: “I can’t really add too much to it.

“It’s a knee problem.

“There was no time when he felt it, but I spoke to Anthony at half time, and he was in quite a bit of pain.

“I don’t know quite how bad it is.”

He also told talkSPORT a bit more.

He said: “It doesn’t look good.”

But there is better news on Burn, Howe said: “I don’t think Dan is too bad.”

Howe reflects on disappointing evening

Newcastle manager Eddie Howe has been speaking to Sky Sports about the 3-2 defeat to Chelsea.

He said: “Strange game.

“I thought we started really well, but they scored with their first attack.

“I don’t think it was a game full of chances, and yet, it was high-scoring.

“I thought we were really good in spells, but not good enough because the goals we conceded were really poor.

“I thought we were competitive, but the final ball wasn’t good enough.

“We didn’t defend all three goals well enough.”

Cole Palmer was once again brilliant.

The England international must have impressed Gareth Southgate with a goal and an assist.

This is the fifth time he’s got a goal and an assist in the same game in the Premier League this season.

Premier League table

That’s a good result for Chelsea, who are now just one point behind Newcastle.

The race for Europe is looking very tasty indeed.

Chelsea 3-2 Newcastle – FULL TIME

They are now just one point behind Newcastle in the Premier League table and will look to build on this.

Meanwhile, the Toon were nowhere near their best and their terrible record at Stamford Bridge goes on.
