Enzo Maresca says Chelsea could benefit from having experienced players who know how to handle intimidating atmospheres like St James' Park, but the Blues boss was proud of his young side's unlikely comeback here.
Newcastle led 2-0 after an abysmal first half from the visitors, but a fantastic free-kick from Reece James and a cool finish from Joao Pedro saw Maresca's side leave with a draw after they rallied in the second half.
While knowing the club's strategy is led on youth – with Chelsea having the youngest side in the Premier League – Maresca still feels some seniority could help them cope with contests such as this.
