Pardew probably thought he'd have another good game like he did vs. Blackburn since Wigan aren't that good. Hopefully Marveaux starts from now on, can't see any more excuses to start Obertan anymore.
Yes we didn't play as well as we could've, but this is the difference between us last season and this season. We are able to grind out the result even when we aren't playing at 100%. Well done Cabaye for his first goal, and what a goal it was.
