Ivory Coast Star Knows All About The Toon!
Cheik Tiote says he joined Newcastle Utd because he is a fan! Cheik Tiote: ”For me Newcastle is perfect. Firstly it is a club I already love, and it is a big club. “It isn’t a small team – it’s Newcastle, you know? I know the history of the club well. It is different here. The fans seem to be so passionate and I’ve heard a lot about them. “There were nearly 50,000 here for the Blackpool game which is amazing. The club is very professional. I’m very happy here.” “I would say I'm physical, I have good technique, I'm very determined and I'm very competitive. “I always want to win, that’s my style, and that is what Newcastle want. “To be Dutch champions with FC Twente and then play in the World Cup is a big deal. “It was a lot of fun. And now I hope the fun will continue with Newcastle. “It has been quite a special summer for me. I am settling in very well and everything is good."
