The 28-year-old had a fascinating start to his career with the Magpies during the second half of the 2011/2012 season, but failed to replicate the same form from the season there on, and Pardew has now notified that the Senegalese striker must have a strong second half in order to keep his place with the Tyneside club beyond the summer.



"He needs to have a big second half of the season for the summer," Pardew said. "We are going to have to make a decision with Papiss: whether he is going to stay at this club and be a big player for us like he was two years ago and last year to a degree, or whether it's going to be pastures new."



Papiss Cisse has scored 3 goals in 18 games for the club this season.
