In my time following Newcastle, I'd rate our right backs (and frequent stand-ins that I can remember) something like this, without giving it very much thought admittedly: 1. Trippier. Not even close. 2. Beye 3. Debuchy 4. Barton 5. Watson 6. Janmaat 7. Manquillo 8. Krafth 9. Hughes 10. Carr 11. Solano 12. Griffin 13. Edgar 14.

Shearergol Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Hughes was MASSIVELY underrated by a lot of our fans. It's weird. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proper takes me back to a couple of games where he may have scored and then we go down and he instantly turns into worst player on the pitch lol.

Yeah a solid 6.5/7 out of 10 most weeks like. Talent wise below the likes of Trippier, Beye, Debuchy but ahead of Manquillo, Simpson and the like.

Guest Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Trippier Venison Beye Debuchy Watson Hughes Barton Griffin Janmaat Simpson Manquillo Krafth Carr From our senior defenders, probably missed a few but that's off the top of my head. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had he played like that every game for us he'd have been considered one of the best left backs ever in the league. How is that out of order? Hughes was a center back playing as a make shift right back for us. His best form came when he moved to Fulham and got to play in his natural position. For us he played in a better team, but no way was he better individually as a right back than those three. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Aaron Hughes also had one of the best post-NUFC careers on that list. Proper player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a list I made very quickly without too much thought behind it. I may have pushed Solano a bit too far down as I can't remember having much negative to say about his performances, but didn't want to put him too high either just because it's Nobby fucking Solano who deserves to be top of most lists regardless of what they are about. As you said, his competition for that spot wasn't shit hot either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloody hell, that’s pretty much my order too - all I’d do is swap Beye and Watson’s positions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrownBottle Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 I’m also surprised how high some have Barton. The lad had a huge heart, but he was a painfully mediocre FB who stood out like a sore thumb when he played in a good side. Considering he was a British record for a defender, he always struck me as a waste of money by Keegan (who I think signed him because he seemed to have a knack of scoring vs us - KK wasn’t exactly a big one for scouting).
