10 Newcastle United Rumours That Need To Die Immediately

9. Yohan Cabaye Will Return

The Rumour Since his big move to France was a bust, and he's apparently available in January and wants to come back to the Premier League, former French fancy Yohan Cabaye is on the verge of rejoining Newcastle. And there will be some sort of procession in his honour when he does. The Truth Some facts: Yohan Cabaye tried to leave Newcastle twice. Yohan Cabaye went on strike and refused to play for Newcastle twice. Yohan Cabaye was sold the idea of Newcastle as a stepping stone, and he duly used it as one. There is more chance of Lazarus appearing to play centre-midfield for Newcastle than Cabaye: he thinks (knows) he is better than Newcastle's level and he will inevitably join Arsenal or Liverpool or Spurs, because they fit the billing as the "bigger clubs" he wants. And if you want proof Newcastle can't sell themselves as a big club, just refer back to any Pardew press conference during any of the last three transfer windows.
