Just saw the latest quotes from Pardew about Abeid... well got to say, this is a peculiar one. You have to wonder what's happened that's changed the management's mind about Abeid (especially between the period of that promising performance against Blackburn in the FA Cup to now). Attitude problems? Ability issues?
A loan would do him a lot of good, it's done Tavernier a load of good so can see the same happening with Abeid.
