Levi Colwill To Start; Marc Cucurella And Christopher Nkunku On The Bench: Chelsea's Predicted XI Vs Newcastle - Part 2

GK – Robert Sanchez

The 25-year-old may feel he could have done better with City’s third goal a couple of weeks ago.

Sanchez wasn’t able to cut out the cross, allowing Haaland to bundle the ball into the back of the net. Other than that minor error, though, the other three goals in the 4-4 draw were not his fault.

The Spaniard is gaining confidence, and it does appear as if he is growing into his role as Chelsea’s number one.

With reports suggesting that the Blues won’t go into the market for another keeper in the New Year, Sanchez seems to have the backing of Pochettino.
