Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew has confirmed that Yohan Cabaye will be on the bus to Norwich this weekend, but he won’t start the game. In a huge boost to the side Cabaye, Papiss Cisse, Fabricio Coloccini and Jonas Gutierrez will all be playing some part in the game. Newcastle who have been without up to 9 players at various times over the last three months won’t see Steven Taylor this weekend, but he is expected to return for the 19th against Reading. 

Pardew said;

"The good news is we are taking Cabaye on the bus, which is like signing a new player. I don't think he's really ready to start, if I'm honest. I think his role will be off the bench, if the situation evolves where we need him.

Yohan is a great player and has lifted everybody this week, just in terms of picking passes out in training. It's just nice to have some senior players out there working hard and just his inclusion is going to give everyone a huge lift.

Papiss and Colo are both fit as well, so they will be in and around the team, and we certainly look a lot stronger than the unfortunate situation we were in last week.

Steven Taylor will be ready for Reading and Cabaye will certainly be ready for Reading. Jonas is fit and he will be available for Norwich, so we are getting some senior bodies back at a crucial time."

Cabaye Is Back On The Bus!
