Pardew Praise
"I love Elliott to bits and I think he is a very good player, but I just couldn't see him getting a fair share of games next season", said Pardew to the Newham Recorder.
"When you look at the centre backs we have at the club as well as the one I've just signed, I think we have enough cover in that area.
"But we all owe a lot to Elliott for the part he played in our promotion and I still think that he can get better and better and become a good Premiership player in the future."
