It has not been a quiet week at Newcastle either, understandably after their derby loss by Sunderland.
Captain Bruno Guimaraes had said was ‘embarrassed’ by the performance and labelled it a ‘mess’.
Eddie Howe had challenged those comments and called on his players to back up their talk on the pitch.
They achieved it in midweek by beating Fulham in the cup, but a reaction in the Premier League against Chelsea feels important to helping heal last weekend's wounds.
