The former Montpellier man has failed to settle in England since his move to the Magpies in January, and his form has dipped as a result.<br />

Yanga-Mbiwa has been linked with a move back to Montpellier in January, but Pardew reckons the player very much remains a part of his plans and can be a key member of the squad once he finds his feet,<br />

“Everybody has the right to an opinion, but that particular one is not an opinion I share.We paid a lot of money for him and you’re looking for a bit of character in a player in this situation. That’s what we’ve seen from him." Pardew said.
