Hello and welcome to the Sky Sports Football podcast. Let's get straight to the full-time

whistleblowing in the Monday night football at Stanford Bridge in the match between Chelsea and Newcastle.

Isaac responded just before the break and life could have got awkward for Chelsea but two second half goals.

A beauty from Palmer and Mudrick off the bench to make it 3-1 before Murphy's Thunderbolt

That was not quite enough. Too little too late for them. And in the end for you, Gary, the right result?

We're enough to give Bristio Potitino some breathing space ahead of a very important fake-up weekend.

They have now one more in the league than they have lost.

11 wins, 10 defeats.

And Chelsea moved to within a point of Newcastle.
