3) Alan Pardew has Jose Mourinho’s Number
Alan Pardew has now become the manager with the most Premier League wins against Jose Mourinho, beating ‘The Special One’ with Newcastle and Crystal Palace, which is no easy feat.
Perhaps his tactics are just well suited to playing against Chelsea but either way his side put in a fantastic shift to beat the champions and the evident unity and quality in the squad make Pardew‘s boys serious contenders for a top-seven finish.
