Newcastle 4-1 Chelsea ratings: Badiashile stands out, barely

Conor Gallagher: 5/10

Gallagher also suffered from the problem of playing against a midfield three. His work rate was good, and he was involved in Chelsea’s two big chances of the game, as he missed a big chance and created one. He was not spectacular, but he wasn’t poor.

Raheem Sterling: 6/10

Sterling was generally poor, though he scored a superb free kick to equalize the score for Chelsea to 1-1.

Nicolas Jackson: 4/10

Jackson was inconsequential and took zero shots.

Mykhailo Mudryk (69′): 4/10

Mudryk did his best to impact the game but ultimately couldn’t.

Moises Caicedo (69′): 1/10

Caicedo’s abysmal performance is highlighted by the fact he won 1/6 ground duels he contested.

Armando Broja (69′): 2/10

Broja was even more useless than Jackson, if that’s possible.

Levi Colwill (75′): 2/10

Colwill was one of those who didn’t contribute positively to the match.

Noni Madueke (87′): N/A

Madueke didn’t get a real chance to impact the game and therefore doesn’t get a rating.

Mauricio Pochettino: 7/10

Pochettino, to his credit, correctly read the situation and concluded that Benoit Badiashile should make his return to the lineup. Badiashile was the reason Chelsea didn’t concede way more.
