FT Chelsea 5-1 Newcastle: Chelsea score three goals in the opening 17 minutes as they produce their finest display of the season to sweep aside an abject Newcastle. But how serious is that injury to captain John Terry?

A miserable evening is complete for Janmaat, who has had to limp off injured.

GOAL! Chelsea 5-1 Newcastle: Townsend salvages a little pride for Newcastle. A fine goal as he drills a low shot beyond Courtois from 20 yards. That will annoy the keeper.

Fabregas is capable of creating something from nothing with his brilliant passing ability, and he did that just then.

CLOSE! Hazard almost makes it six! Fabregas picks him out again, but the Belgian can't sort out his feet to poke it in. Instead he fails to get a clean contact and puts it wide.

GOAL! Chelsea 5-0 Newcastle: Traore makes it five! Azpilicueta exchanges passes with Hazard down the right flank before the Spaniard crosses for Traore, who slides in to score his first Premier League goal at the near post.

Willian is the latest player given a rest by Guus Hiddink ahead of Paris. Willian has put in another tremendous shift for the Blues.

Chelsea sub: Loftus-Cheek, Willian off.

Chelsea players queuing up to have a go at goal. In the end, Pedro lets it run to Fabregas, whose shot is charged down.

Courtois plucks Shlevey's corner from the sky and sets Chelsea moving by spotting the run of Hazard, but his cross is cut out before it can reach Traore.

Not an ideal game for Doumbia to make his debut.

Newcastle sub: Doumbia on, Mitrovic off.

Chelsea aren't satisfied with four here. They have scored 4+ goals in a Premier League game for the first time since September 13th 2014.

Newcastle sub: Lascelles on, Tiote off.

Newcastle continuing to see plenty of the ball, but it's what you do with it that counts. And Newcastle have done absolutely nothing.

Costa leaves to a standing ovation. He was back to his best today.

Chelsea sub: Traore on, Costa off.

GOAL! Chelsea 4-0 Newcastle: Pedro makes it four! Fabregas picks him out with a brilliant pass, Pedro darts between Taylor and Janmaat and places his shot into the bottom corner.
