themanupstairs Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 https://www.nufc.co.uk/nufc-tv/latest-videos/dubravka-the-first-interview Speaks English well. Probably one of Rafa's first conditions of looking at an emergency keeper at this stage of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Let Dúbravka save the ball Let Dúbravka save the ball Let Dúbravka save the ball Let Dúbravka save the ball Let Dúbravka save the ball (Limbs) Make it happen. Don't let it drown in a pool. Very good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Really needs to start right away, I think Rafa hinted that he would in his comments about the signing needing to adapt very quickly. Hard on Darlow but we've brought this lad in for a reason and if we are looking to "try before we buy" he needs an opportunity to do that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelveys Hair Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Just watched his interview and he looks absolutely buzzing to be at the club.. hopefully we get to see him play in the not too distant future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I really can't see him playing until Rafa has at least seen him in training for a bit. Think this is 50% a punt on a player, 50% a way to allow Woodman out on loan for much needed gametime. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 As much as some of our players aren’t world beaters, they all seem to be genuinely happy to be here and are generally all great professionals. A world away from some of the mercenary twats we’ve had before. If we could have that character, and an owner who would pay for better quality, we’d be absolutely set.

Wonder if that has something to do with the manager and more positive atmosphere from the fans (due to the manager). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Was going to say it must be ages since we've acquired a senior player (not Vuckic, Satka) from a team playing in a European league in 'Eastern Europe' ( I guess Czech Republic isn't really classed as Eastern Europe but it's more East than the bigger central European leagues, like Germany if that makes sense). But then I remembered we loaned Ferrerya not that long ago. Not sure who it would have been before that. Maybe Maric but I'm sure I'm missing someone really obvious as that seems a big gap between him and Ferrerya Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Aye he was. I completely forgot about him 'playing' for us just like Ferrerya Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 We got Kadar from Hungary, that was my other guess. Not a senior player though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I forgot about Kadar too tbf, he's carved out a good career for himself. Feels like we rarely buy players from Eastern Europe or even Scandinavia. Guess Modric would have changed that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Think you have to go back to Ketsbaia, Georgiadis & Dabizas who were before Maric. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Just checked and apparently we signed Lamine Diatta after he bought out his contract at Besiktas. Not sure if that counts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Theres a video showing him in action on youtube - Martin Dúbravka - Welcome to Newcastle United Some hilarious saves in there, guy seems to fly around his goal limbs all over the place a lot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sho Time Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Wew, watching that video he looks just like Sels. Constantly 'saving' the ball into the danger area and putting the team under pressure. If that's a compliation of his best bits, then he doesn't really look that good at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 How much of it is down to the quality he's up against I don't know, but it's hard not to just think that a good save is a good save, and he appears to make a fair amount of good saves.
