BlazeT44 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I was asked a question earlier by a family member, which made me think.... "What's your favourite Newcastle XI, and managed by who?" A difficult one! But I went with a semi-credible formation (some creative license). Given Solano Schar Coloccini Burn Cabaye Speed Bruno HBA Jonas Shearer Manager: Sir Bobby. What's your starting XI? Really interested in hearing some of the answers.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my problem I also realised we didn't have tons of loveable LBs. Couldn't bring myself to include Enrique. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sushimonster85 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 This is tough.. I know it's unfashionable and wouldn't work in this day and age. But for simplicity I'm going 4-4-2. Feel like it's a mix of head and heart.

sixx Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Given Solano Schar Dabizas Bernard HBA Speed Joelinton Robert Shearer Carroll I've just realized I've disliked Colccini for so long. Probably very unwarranted Just thought he was a shit captain at the time. I'm blaming Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I couldn't develop any attachments during most of the Ashley era really, so I tend to ignore most of those players. A lot of them annoyed me for different reasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
