What immediate reactions were there after the Chelsea vs Newcastle match?

David Jones 0:00
We can get reactions straight away from Stamford Bridge. Gary Cahill back into the team today and what a happy ending for him. Gary, congratulations. It must have been rather nice being back out there, wasn't it?
Gary Cahill 0:10
Yeah, thank you very much.

How did Gary Cahill feel about his return to the team?

Gary Cahill 0:12
Yeah, definitely. Great to be back on the pitch and ultimately, you know, great to get the result and not just the result but the way it went about, the performance today was fantastic and it was enjoyable to be a part of.
David Jones 0:23
What did your team get right? How did you make it look so easy today?
Gary Cahill 0:28
We didn't get everything right, because obviously we conceded late on, but we got most things right today. I think the appetite was there, the hunger to work hard, not just the attacking players we've got when they're in full throw. They're fantastic to watch, so we got that bit right, but also the defensive and the nitty-gritty side of it. We chased back, we harassed, we won the ball back. Numerous times we won the ball back very quickly after we lost it, so that was pleasing. But obviously the Flair players were on fire today and they played really, really well.
David Jones 0:58
And it's 10 unbeaten in the league now, Gary. Have you seen the confidence of your teammates growing week by week?
Gary Cahill 1:06
We have, yeah, but we did speak before the game and although we were unbeaten, we realised that we've got a lot of draws amongst them results, so we wanted to start turning them draws into wins and today we did that convincingly, so I'm sure the manager will be pleased and certainly us players are.
David Jones 1:19
Big games keep on coming. PSG in the Champions League on Tuesday, Gary. Tell us, what do you think a good end to the season looks like for Chelsea now?
Gary Cahill 1:28
Obviously, we want to go as far as we possibly can in the Cup and the Champions League, realising, like you just said, this is a very important week for the football club. We got off to a great start today, and obviously we've got the away leg and the FA Cup, which we all know is going to be very tough.

What strategies did Chelsea implement to secure their victory?

Gary Cahill 1:42
Two massive games, arguably the biggest games of the season for us coming up now. We'll go into it with confidence from today, but we know how important it's going to be.
David Jones 1:51
Well done, Gary. Good to see you back on the team, and thanks for speaking to us.
Gary Cahill 1:54
Thank you very much. See you later.
David Jones 1:55
All the best to you. And some big stories elsewhere today in the Barclays Premier League news. On those now with Sarah Jane.
Sarah Jane 2:01
Thanks very much, David. Well, it was a big day for the bottom clubs in the Premier League this Saturday. Six of the bottom seven were in action. The fight back is on for Sunderland as a win against Manchester United leaves them a point from safety. Norwich, they threw away another vital lead and points against West Ham, but Newcastle's heavy defeat means they are out of the drop zone and Newcastle back in. Six games coming your way in match choice at 10 o'clock tonight. Take your pick via the red button, as usual. On the front screen, it's bad news for Bournemouth, Stoke and their losing streak.
Scott Parker 2:32
I sensed, as I said, that there was a real focus to our work, intensity to our work, and we went to beat tonight.
Unknown 2:39
The Premier League, that's what it is sometimes. Small margins. We're on a tricky run. We need to really stick together now and fight our way out of this form. The Premier League is always tough for clubs like West Brom. There's about 12 clubs in the Premiership who will be looking over their shoulders non-stop until they get the 40 points. We're no different to the other 12. A great win, great attitude of the players and another clean sheet. It's fantastic. It's disappointing. I think certainly based on how we played in the game and the opportunities we had, I think we should have seen the game out and managed to get the three points.
Sarah Jane 3:15
The action from Carrow Road coming up. Norwich against West Ham is our game of the day at 8 o'clock tonight. We have extended highlights of the rest of Saturday's 3 o'clock kick-offs available via the red button at 10. Plus there'll be another chance to see the game from Stamford Bridge. Danny Higginbottom joins us tonight to discuss all the day's stories.
