Chelsea break unwanted Premier League record from 2015 as pressure on Graham Potter mounts

Chelsea have broken an unwanted club record after falling to defeat at Newcastle, with the pressure now mounting on boss Graham Potter.

A goal from Joe Willock in the second-half proved enough for the Magpies to claim all three points at St James' Park. It was a deserved win for the hosts, with the Blues barely laying a glove on Eddie Howe's men as they slipped to another disappointing loss.

Potter has won just two of his last eight games in charge, which has left Chelsea eighth in the Premier League, eight points adrift of the top four. And it is a run of form that has seen the Blues match an unwanted record that has stood for more than seven years.
