Newcastle united midfielder and new signing http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 done’ against Greek side Atromitos tonight for the club’s second leg Europa League play off.
The former Ajax player turned down the opportunity to play for a Champions League club and instead opted to sign for the Magpies. Anita had been a long term target for the club and manager http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alan-c4244 Pardew had been trying to secure the versatile player’s signatures
ever since the transfer window opened back in June.
Anita, who can play at left back and in the defensive midfield role, is seen as a vital and tactically important signing for Newcastle. Despite conceding a penalty, the midfielder showed how good he is in the game against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 and impressed many.

to the group stages of the competition.
Newcastle go into the game with a vital away goal that was scored through a Ryan Taylor free kick in the first leg of the game. Speaking to the press ahead of the match, Anita talked about the importance of European football for the club and what it means
to the players and supporters:
“This is an important competition for the club and we want to do well.”
“We hope to get the job done tonight. It was a tough first leg, but we took something out of it.”
The player is excited by return of European football at Tyneside and is expecting the fans to turn up and get behind the team, just like they did in the home victory against Tottenham and at Stamford Bridge last week. Anita added:
“There was great support in the stadium and also against Chelsea from the away areas. They just kept on cheering for us.”
“That is beautiful for any player to experience and we hope to finish the game at home."
