The results are starting to flow under Thomas Tuchel. Since the German manager has taken the helm, Chelsea has taken ten points from four duels. A win against Newcastle will leave the Blues in fourth place, a stunning return to the Champions League places, after their drop-down from the table cost Frank Lampard his job on the Chelsea sidelines.
