ALAN Pardew has revealed Danny Mills is unlikely to be coming back to The Valley.

The full-back returned to Manchester City earlier this week after completing a four month loan deal.

His last appearance for the Addicks came on December 22 against Hull, a game which saw the former England defender sent off for showing dissent to the referee.

Pardew said: "I've made a decision that he probably will not be coming back here.

"The disciplinary record played a part in the decision. I felt he played well for us in his time here.

"He was important in and around the place and we are missing him a little bit in the dressing room, but I have to reflect on all of what went on.

"There were a couple of times when he went close to the wire before he got sent off and I can't afford that situation anymore."

Pardew added: "I've got Yassin Moutaouakil here and maybe it is time for him to come into the team.

"Yassin has only just come back from injury and hasn't really seen a lot of football in all the time Mills was here, which is a shame, because he hasn't really put pressure on Danny.

"He is now available and will play on Saturday.

"What he can bring to the team is thrust. Any team that has an emphasis to win at home needs thrust and we've lacked a bit of that.

"Both full-backs Mills and Powell, with all due respect, are quite staid in their defensive approach but are both very good defenders, whereas Yassin is a little bit more the other way.

"That would be an asset for us and might put the opposition on the back foot."

Kelly Youga is also expected to be given a start against West Brom in the FA Cup this weekend after he returned from a successful loan stint at Scunthorpe.

Youga was quoted as saying he would like to make a quick return to Glanford Park, but Pardew is challenging the left-back to impress on a bigger stage with the Addicks.

The manager said: "Initially we loaned him out to give him a window to show his wares and obviously to see how he has improved. He has improved a great deal.

"I'm sure if he went to Scunthorpe his next move if it was to be up would be to a club like Charlton, so what is the point of going to Scunthorpe if he can do it here?

"That's a decision I have to make and I will have a good look at him."
