It was all going too well...

Matt Davies-Adams has The Athletic's Chelsea experts Simon Johnson and Liam Twomey alongside him to reflect on the hugely disappointing 4-1 defeat at St. James' Park.

But we begin with our tributes to Terry Venables - who has sadly died at the age of 80.

There's analysis of where it all went so horribly wrong against Newcastle, Poch's post-match fury, ill-discipline and your thoughts on the performance.

At least we can always count on CFCW - continuing their unbeaten start to the season and picking up their 20th (!) consecutive home WSL win after their 5-2 triumph over Leicester at Kingsmeadow.

We'll be back on Thursday to look ahead to the visit of old friends Brighton to Stamford Bridge.
