    Superb first half. Probably even better than it looked when you take the conditions into account. Now let's see if its better or worse playing with the wind...

    Top stuff from the lads, I had reservations about our ability to attack a team that sits back like palace but, and credit to pardew here, were doing brilliantly. Okay the goals had a bit of luck but on the whole we have completely controlled the game. The reason is Anita and cabaye. Gotta say I'm so glad pads has finally seen in Anita what this whole board has been saying for time, he is the glue ATM and his movement off the ball totally changes the dynamic of our team. I've seen will attempt a long ball once so far. Top stuff so far even if Remy has been totally anonymous

    Can we hold onto Cabaye? I feel certain Arsenal will be back and Man U will join them. Bidding war could be possible.

    I think Remy has been doing a different job in that first half. Spent most of his time working as an outlet down the flanks for difficult balls out of defence in the wind. I thought he did well.

    The value has certainly risen though.

    I'd take £15m plus Zaha.

    Another game of two halfs here. I mean clearly they have been told to shut up shop!

    Pardew should really be using all his subs today to save legs for the fixtures to come.

    What a chance we have of cementing ourselves in the top half with the next two games to come~!

    How have we not scored more today? Loads of chances. Nice to see us control a game from a good position. Defence has been rock solid, Colo outstanding.

    Shola dive. HBA great power.

    Doesn't matter. Dominant performance, confidence and power all over the pitch. Away from home too. Looking really strong, up there with the rich boys.

    edit: 3 times as many points as Sun'lund.

    I'd keep the 15m and give it to cabaye in the form of a new contract

    Well played. Thought the defence was immense. Not always pretty but those are horrible conditions to defend in. Cabaye MOTM for me but no bad performances. Well done lads!!

    Pards really sticking two fingers up at his critics this season. Another tactical battle won. He had us so well drilled today. The extra prep time without Europa has really told this season.

    Not sure money will be enough to keep Cabaye. You can offer him any amount of money, he can play CL and challenge for trophies at Man U/Arsenal.
