I’ve learned from my ban, insists Newcastle star Cabaye
Yohan Cabaye is back from suspension.
NEWCASTLE United midfielder Yohan Cabaye insists he’s learned from his three-game suspension as he prepares to return to the team.
The France international is back in contention after serving a three-match ban for violent conduct following an incident involving Brighton’s Adam El-Abd during the FA Cup tie at the Amex Stadium on January 28.
The 26-year-old former Lille player is desperate to make a return against managerless Wolves at the weekend, and revealed he has upped his training in a bid to secure a place in Alan Pardew’s side.
“Three matches out was so long for me, and then another week without a fixture as well,” Cabaye said.
“It was very frustrating how it happened at Brighton but that is football and I have learned from it.
“But I have worked hard to be ready and fit again.Pardew hails return of ‘iconic’ players
“During my time out I have been training with the team as normal but also training on my own at home.
“I wanted to stay as fit as possible so have been running and using the gym at home. If the manager selects me against Wolves I will be ready.”
