Name your championship manager, starting XI & bench

Hello!

 

In the somewhat likely event that Newcastle is relegated, I started thinking about what the squad would/should look like, and also what N-O's hypothetical thoughts were. For this to work, please base your starting XI and bench on the following assumptions:

 

- Alan Pardew has been sacked in March in a desparate attempt at saving our PL status.

- Mike Ashley is not interested in spending ANY money after paying out the remainder of Pardews contract.

- These players have been sold/not renewed contracts/returned to owner club: Krul, Coloccini, Mwiba, Santon, Janmaat, Sissoko, Anita, De Jong, Cabella, Tiote, Ben Arfa, Cisse, Riviere and Ferreyra

 

I don't think I would actually mind another season in the championship, provided that it is under a better, forward thinking manager. We have some exciting prospects that could greatly benefit from a season in the Championship, ready to have a good go at the PL should they manage to get promoted on the first attempt.

 

I have no idea who the manager should be, but my team would look something like:

 

----------------------------Darlow-------------------------------

Raylor----------Williamson-----Lascelles----------Haidara

---------------------Abeid---------Colback--------------------

Ameobi-------------------Vuckic----------------------Aarons

----------------------------Perez--------------------------------

 

Subs:

Alnwick

Good

Dummett

Bigirimana

Obertan

Gouffran

Armstrong

 

Not too sure about my own inclusion of Vuckic. I think I might prefer Bigi in midfield instead of him, but it's not much creativity in there then.

Its difficult to pick a team because I think at least two players you would expect to leave would stay, and its hard to predict who. Last time round Collocini and Enrique both stuck around, for example, when they probably could have found decent moves.

Kitson looks out of place there. I'd play 3-times WPOTY Joe Kinnear.

Wasn't Pardew a centeback?  Roeder could play a defenisve holding role in midfeild allowing Souey to attack.
