We'll done lads, three points away against a known physical team is a good result. Pardew's usual "If you can't beat them, kick them" tactics didn't work today and we showed some real heart to come though with the win. Have seen plenty of teams get their heads down after constant stoppages when you're building up some steam and questionable decisions, thankfully not today.
Not getting too involved in the Yaya debate. He put the ball in the net twice today and will rightly grab the headlines. Shades of him putting in effort as in games gone by, as well as him being bypassed by the opposition as an games gone by.
One question, can anyone help clear up? The zaba and puncheon incident. Commentators were saying it is a sending off offence under the new rules. Is this correct and if so will it be reviewed? Personally I'd be pissed if one of ours saw red for that, but if that is now a rule then does it "meet the unspecified FA criteria" to get reviewed?
