Newcastle boss Alan Pardew believes that his side deserved their 3-0 win against Manchester United at the Sports Direct Arena.

Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew believes that his side deserved their 3-0 win against Manchester United at the Sports Direct Arena.

Goals from Demba Ba, Yohan Cabaye and a Phil Jones own goal have kept the Magpies in the hunt for the European places.

"We won because we controlled the game in terms of what we wanted to do. We would not let them play," Pardew told Sky Sports News. "Physically and aerially we had an advantage and capitalised on that. We broke up their play so many times today.

"We beat the champions 3-0 and probably deserved that scoreline. We have had a great season so far without turning over one of the top teams. Today we had our best team out there and it showed."

Newcastle next host Blackburn Rovers in the FA Cup third round on Saturday.
