“I think the Tottenham thing is just speculation. That club has spent seven or eight million pounds on a goalkeeper already so I don’t think they’re going to spend any more on a goalkeeper. It’s purely speculation and talk in the papers – I’m sure that when Gomes gets his confidence back he’ll be a very, very good goalkeeper again. I wouldn’t want to leave Newcastle anyway, I’m very happy where I’m at.”
About the latest bout of clean sheets, Shay says:
“We’ve improved hugely in the defence and that’s a good thing for us and bodes well. You look at the last two games and we’ve kept clean sheets in away games and that’s the kind of base that you need to build on.
“We’ve not won games but we’ll take some consolation from the clean sheets. The defence has looked good. I’ve not had too much to do in the last game and that’s a credit to them.”
