Newcastle United legend David Ginola is delighted seeing manager Alan Pardew put his faith in French talent.

Ginola is backing United's French revolution to make an impact.

He told the Evening Chronicle: "When I turned up I was a Frenchman - a stranger on my own in the city - but I was made to feel very welcome, and I loved it.

"The six French players in the dressing room will have a big impact.

"It's great for the fans to have these players come in, as they're very exciting players."
