Stamford Chidge is joined by Jonathan Kydd and Mark Meehan to look back at Chelsea's FA Cup win over Barnsley and look ahead to Monday night's match against Newcastle United.

Sam Inkersole from Football.London joins us to look back at Chelsea's 1-0 win away to Barnsley in the FA Cup. Tammy came to the rescue at both ends after Tommy T's second half changes. But why did so many players fail to impress and it's all about the win...isn't it?

Will from the Talk of the Toon podcast joins us to give 'The Opposition View' on Newcastle Utd, our next opponents. The Toon's form seems to have picked up recently with wins against Southampton and Everton, does this have anything to do with Steve Bruce or more the return of Allan Saint-Maximin, and how will they cope without Callum Wilson? As ever, Will tells us how he sees the match going and gives us his prediction.

Finally, we have our own preview of Chelsea v Newcastle. With Kai Havertz absent again we ask should we be worried about the young German or just more patient? Thiago Silva is still out with injury but Timo Werner is fit again, so who will Tuchel select and if we go purely in currently on form what is Chelsea's best side at the moment. We wrap up by explaining how we see the match going and give our predictions.
