Martin Dubravka insists his ambition is to play in Europe for Newcastle. The Slovakian was United’s best player last weekend as his heroics kept the scoreline to a respectable 1-0 defeat against Liverpool.
Martin Dubravka said: “It’s been a difficult time for us, playing to survive in the Premier League. I always said that I have ambitions to play in European competitions with Newcastle, so this has always been my dream. If you look back at where I’ve played before, I always played in European competitions – at least the qualification round – so it would be nice to achieve that target here as well. When you watch the Champions League and European competitions, football has changed a lot in the last couple of years. Liverpool and Manchester City are great examples – short passing, trying to build it up, not just kicking the ball away. We are trying to get there, trying to see where we can improve, and you can see a few bits there already. Personally, I’m trying to work with my feet because I think there’s always room to be better.”
