Some sort of quotes from Urby Emanuelson saying Newcastle is a great club and he can make the step up, but staying at Ajax wouldn't be the end of the world.

 

I'm sure he said something similar months ago, the tease.

D-day looms for Newcastle target Vurnon Anita

by Lee Ryder, Evening ChronicleJul 31 2012

 

NEWCASTLE UNITED will run the rule over Ajax star Vurnon Anita again tonight as the Dutch giants take on Chris Hughton’s Norwich City at Carrow Road.

 

But Sunderland are breathing hard down the necks of the Magpies as they too pursue the versatile midfielder.

 

The Chronicle understands that Anita is hungry to sign for United but as yet Newcastle are yet to bid the £7million fee that will get the wheels in motion on the deal.

 

However, that fresh bid could be forthcoming if Anita impresses the Magpies tonight.

 

The Newcastle hierarchy are staying cool despite growing fears from fans that the squad lacks depth ahead of a season of both the domestic and European action.

 

It is still hoped that the transfer of Mathieu Debuchy will be confirmed this week.

 

Plans are in place for the Lille star to make his way to Tyneside tomorrow, despite Inter Milan refusing to give up on the 26-year-old ace. Yet a double swoop for Anita and Debuchy would also help ease the fears of fans on Tyneside.

 

 

 

The 23-year-old Anita – who can cover both full-back areas – was looked at again by Sunderland over the weekend.

 

And the reports that were submitted back to Wearside are believed to be glowing.

 

However, Anita is thought to favour a move to St James’ Park.

 

Sources at Carrow Road say that a request for place for Newcastle on the directors’ box guest list for tonight’s game in East Anglia has been submitted. It is thought to be for a final check on Anita before the Magpies decide whether to up their bid.

 

The acquisition of Anita for United would offer some ideal cover in the engine room for Alan Pardew, not to mention what he can offer in the two defensive slots either side of his back four.

 

Meanwhile, the Chronicle can also reveal Newcastle have been offered Anita’s Ajax team-mate Gregory van der Wiel.

 

The full-back’s contract is up at the end of the season and he is another that would favour a move to Tyneside.

 

However, the right-back is likely to see his dream scuppered by the arrival of Debuchy.

 

It is thought that Van der Wiel’s people are waiting to see the final outcome of Debuchy’s situation before deciding his next move.

That conversation with O'Neill would be brilliant.

 

'Has he played for me before?'

'Does he play in England?'

'Is he a centre half that I can play out of position at full back?'

 

No? Fuck off then.

That seems like a waste of time. Ajax has announced to field a reserve squad against Norwich, Anita will probably not play at all.

translation: "The reserves from the match against The Saints will be allowed to prove themselves against Norwich City on Tuesday (20:45 CET  and also live on Ajax TV)"

Considering how many times we watched Ajax last season i think Pardew knows all about him by now tbh :lol:

 

Agreed, total horseplop (seems to be a popular word on here atm  :lol:)

If we don't know by now if he's good enough, one more game won't make any difference.

 

Journo's man  :idiot2:
