Pompey moved into the top four with that stunning 4-1 win at St James' Park.

Harry Redknapp: "It was a terrific performance and great goals. The first three goals were fantastic.

"You come to St James' Park and it is a difficult place to come - they get great support - and I just felt it was important we did not give anything away early on.

"The system we play, we have got an extra man in the middle of the park and they were going to get out-numbered in there, so I felt it was important we passed the ball and made them change their system or drag a wide man in.

"That was something we spoke about all week, and we did it to perfection - and the goals were absolutely fantastic."
