A relatively routine 4-0 win over a hapless Birmingham City saw Rafa Benitez’s Newcastle United return to top spot in the Championship. 

It was a good day all round, particularly for hat-trick hero Dwight Gayle, who clinically took his tally for the campaign up to an impressive 16 thus far.

The likes of Isaac Hayden and Yoan Gouffran also impressed, while there were typically energetic performances from Matt Ritchie and Jonjo Shelvey.

Still, one man who moved to silence his critics this afternoon was a certain Mo Diame.

Largely slagged off since his summer move from Hull City, the Senegal international was at his physical best today and certainly made the most of Ayoze Perez’s absence.

However, hopefully a strong performance at St. James’ Park earlier this afternoon can represent a turning point in his career on Tyneside.

So, off the back of his game, here’s how Newcastle fans reacted to Diame’s day.
