Heron Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I don't think so. The whole team are beating this 'team' mantra which I love. There are no superstars and the team is becoming more than the sum of its components. The Dubravka, Shelvey and Wood interviews are all fantastic and everything just seems to much more controlled and professional. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I love Dub the man and how much he cares about this club but he’s just not the same as he was his first 1/2 season and the following. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And remember, there wasn't this same response when Rafa left. I think they all knew sharpish Bruce was a charlatan and the second he threw them under the bus they were checked out.

prefabtoon Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 https://www.nufcblog.com/2022/03/27/387888/ Martin Dubravka was also pulled from the Slovakian national team last week. Martin was not part of the squad that was defeated in Norway 2-0. It appears that the goalkeeper will also miss Tuesday’s friendly at Finland with what is being described as angina. Here is what Slovakia’s manager Stefan Tarkovic said before the Norway friendly about Dubravka’s situation as published by futbalsfz.sk: “I am very sorry that two more players have to leave. “Martin Dúbravka is suspected of having angina. Our doctors started antibiotic treatment for him. “He is in isolation and will definitely not be part of the team in Norway and Finland.” There may be an issue with the Google translation, and Martin’s situation may not be as serious as described. Angina can be defined as either: a condition marked by severe pain in the chest, often also spreading to the shoulders, arms, and neck, caused by an inadequate blood supply to the heart. any of a number of disorders in which there is intense localized pain. Angina seems like an odd diagnosis for an athlete in peak physical condition. The treatment isn’t usually antibiotics from what I can find. So Martin may be suffering from localized pain but it’s hard to discern due to Tarkovic’s quotes being a translation. However, it is still a concern with the Tottenham match just six days away. So hopefully, we’ll get some more information in the coming days on the status of both Schar and Dubravka. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

prefabtoon Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Latest Update on Martin Dúbravka after the angina scare Over the weekend, Slovakia’s head coach confirmed that Martin Dubravka had been sent back to Newcastle after falling ill with ‘suspected angina.’ Stefan Tarkovic stated that their doctors had started the NUFC stopper on a course of antibiotics, however he wasn’t well enough to play and had been ruled out of their clash with Finland tomorrow after leaving the Slovakia camp. A few days on, The Chronicle have now issued a much needed update on the goalkeeper’s situation ahead of Sunday’s trip to Spurs. They report that he is expected to train on Tyneside this week, insisting that the issue he’s experiencing is an ‘infection’ and NOT angina – a chest issue which can reduce blood flow to the heart and cause pain in that area. So, Dubravka will sit out of Slovakia’s game tomorrow night, but reports in the North-East suggest he will be fine for Sunday’s game at Tottenham after fears of ‘angina’ proved premature. As for Fabian Schar – another Newcastle star who left his international camp early last week – there has been no update on his ‘adductor injury.’ Eddie Howe confirmed after our 2-1 win at Southampton earlier this month that he’d been managing a groin injury, so it would be no real surprise if he wasn’t risked for this weekend’s trip to London.

joeyt Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 No complaints on the goal but his kicking and indecisiveness really are a hinderance to us I think. Obviously not avocating dropping him but think it's clear we'll need an updgrade in the summer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnes23 Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Upgrading not a priority as I see it for this summer, would rather the funds were used elsewhere. Especially as the quality of all the GKs linked in recent months has been really underwhelming imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubaricho Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 If we can get a clear upgrade, not just a Henderson or someone similar, I’d throw the cash down but still pretty far down the priority list. We will need a ball playing GK though at some point if we really want to progress. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Honestly any other tall GK would've struggled with that goal today, a fast low shot in front of bodies means you can't get your body down low enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 I think it’s very important to upgrade him. The spine has to be as good as we can possibly make it. Even Pope would be good if Burnley relegate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 The goal wasn't his fault but he seemed very hesitant to come out of his area and that got us in a little bit of trouble at some points in the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
