Chelsea player ratings vs Newcastle: Enzo Fernandez shows no leadership plus Axel Disasi shocker | OneFootball

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall dragged before the hour on a night for forget at St James’ Park

Chelsea crashed out of the Carabao Carabao Cup with a 2-0 defeat at Newcastle.

Here’s how Enzo Maresca’s side rated at St. James’ Park...

Filip Jorgensen 4

Played his team into trouble on more than one occasion and failed to command his area.

Axel Disasi 3

Punted Willock’s flick into his own goal, the low point in a dreadful performance which also saw him deliver Veiga a hospital pass in the build-up to the opener.

Tosin Adarabioyo 4

Benoit Badiashile 4

Booked and would have seen red had he succeeded in attempt to drag Gordon back after terrible error.

Marc Cucurella 5

Nice pull-back to make Veiga chance early on but could not provide the extra body inverting into midfield that Chelsea needed.

Enzo Fernandez 3

Captained the side but showed no leadership in the face of first-half Toon storm. Appealing for free-kick when could have stopped Tonali assisting the opener. Caught on the ball so often.

Renato Veiga 4

Should have got a cleaner contact on early chance. Weak in build-up to opener.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall 4

A surprise pick on the right of midfield. Steered good early chance straight at Pope, then hardly involved. Dragged before the hour.

Joao Felix 6

The one Chelsea player to emerge from first-half with credit. Carried the ball bravely, but should have pulled one back when chipping wide with 15 minutes to go.

Mykhailo Mudryk 5

Anonymous in the first-half but better after the break. Created one glaring chance for Nkunku.

Christopher Nkunku 5

Got finish all wrong when meeting Mudryk cross. One or two decent bits of hold-up, but Chelsea needed more to stick.

Substitutes

Noni Madueke (Dewsbury-Hall 57’) 5

Brought on to try to spark a comeback but no major impact.
