Newcastle United brought Chelsea’s winning run to a crashing halt with a 2-0 win at St James’ Park to provide Alan Pardew’s side with a perfect tonic after a deflating week. Following a drab opening half, it was Newcastle, despite painful defeats to Sunderland and Manchester City, that showed the greater impetus to get a victory in the second half and they were duly rewarded with goals from Yoan Gouffran and Loic Remy.
On a run of six-straight wins in all competitions, it appeared that Chelsea might be the side ready to go on a dominating run in this most unpredictable of Premier League seasons. But the only complaints Jose Mourinho can have with the result is the lackluster display from his side that contributed to it. The chance for Chelsea to, temporarily at least, go top of the table went begging and it is Newcastle whose fortunes suddenly look transformed as they move into the top half of the table.
