  1. Yohan Cabaye is expected to be fit for tomorrow’s FA Cup third-round tie with Blackburn Rovers, having limped off on Wednesday with an apparent hamstring strain.

     

    With Danny Guthrie not due back in training until Monday, Mehdi Abeid and Haris Vuckic are in contention to partner him in midfield.

    Just took it from that.

    Manager Alan Pardew rates Ben Arfa’s goal as the best he has ever witnessed, after handing him a role on the right flank in the second half. He said: “I was really pleased with his attitude when he went on to the right.

     

    “We pushed him wide and he could have said, ‘what am I doing out here’? But he attacked the position and that’s really pleasing. Flair and making things happen is 80 per cent of his game. It’s just about balancing it out. Everybody is different as a footballer. You have to know your limitations and your strengths.”

     

    Gutierrez is also aware of the dilemma and said: “We keep saying to Hatem, when he gets the ball in the last quarter of the pitch, we want him to take on players because he has the skill to do so and he is so quick.

     

    “In the middle of the pitch we tell him just to keep it simple, not to do anything flashy and pass the ball. Be safe. He must do his fancy work in the final third.

     

    “We know he is a good player with the ball at his feet, but he has to understand what English football is all about. In Spain or France it is not as physical and maybe there is less contact. It has been difficult for him to adjust, especially after his big injury.

     

    “When you break your leg like he did it is sometimes difficult to deal with the physical aspect, but he is doing well. He is going to be OK and showed what a big player he can be for this club.”

     

    Haven't heard those quotes before, are they regurgitated?

     

    Hopefully he'll take the blinkers off and stick him on the wing.
