Alan Pardew: "I am a little surprised at the club's start, yes, of course.
"You don't expect to go this far in the Premier League and not be beaten.
"We have had a couple of shaky games where it was definitely on the cards that we could lose, but we have managed to get something out of the game.
"I can't say I am not slightly surprised by how well we have done.
''We have had a great start and we are showing a lot of sides to us as a team. We will just take that into Everton and look no further than that.
''I think our fans are underestimated about their knowledge of the game. I think they know exactly where we are at.
"They know we are playing with confidence and that we have got a decent side. How good it is, we don't know. We are just going from game to game at the moment.
''But I don't see the expectation levels rising or going through the roof here. Everybody has got their feet on the ground and we are just hoping we can keep it going.''
