Milner then <whistle>
Can't pick Milner as he didn't play that many positions when he was here, Perch did however. Read the rules my bruddah.
Ye, I know. He came and left us even before he turned 20 didn't he?!
God, I hated when he left us, back then I wasn't used to see my favorite players go <urgh>

It's a World Cup Squad. Got to have someone who can play 4+ positions.

I suppose you had to include Luque <laugh>
What do you mean? One of only two men to score in a Tyne and Wear Derby and Alan Shearer's testimonial.
Thus cementing Legendary status <roll>

 Meh, I'm 35 and got excited about Carroll, he really was an exciting player and had he stayed on and injury free I think his goal record could be pretty special by now. I also had Cabaye's name on my shirt after just that Darlo friendly, so we've all done it...
A lot of ifs there, mate ;)

I was late to football entirely, and only started following Newcastle the season back in the prem after the first relegation. In my naivety I remember being really excited about Carroll, banging the goals in for years to come. I then followed that up by getting Cabaye on my first ever Newcastle shirt not long after we signed him. Learnt since then. My team is obviously limited because of that.

Goalkeepers

Krul, Harper, Dubravka

Defenders

Debuchy, Lascelles, Colocinni, Perch, R. Taylor, Enrique, Lejune, Dummett

Midfielders

Cabaye, Nolan, Ben Arfa, Jonas, Perez, Gouffran, Tiote, Wijnaldum

Strikers

Carroll, Ba, Remy, Cisse

I'd like to have included Shearer and Milner, but never actually watched them play for the club at times. Obviously there would be a lot more if that was the case, but it's not really the game. Shearer is a no brainer, and I personally just like Milner. Great player, regardless of what club he's at.

Re: Best Newcastle squad

Like I said, I wouldn't have put him in my team because I'm an old jerk, but if I didn't have Cole and Beardsley to pick from I'd have had Carroll above Ba or Cisse.

Don't get me wrong, me fawning over that Liverpool performance doesn't mean I thought he should be ranked ahead of any of those players you listed, I was just getting nostalgic.

Re: Best Newcastle squad

Yeah Carroll done very well for us but I remember the likes of Shearer, Cole, Sir Les Tino and Bellamy in their prime for us.

I'm not sure why I didn't mention him in my extended panel though as I did with Cisse and Ba. Perhaps as you say it was because of how he left similar to Debuchy but also that I just rated the Senegalese lads ahead of him.

As stated if any of 3 of them were to take a spot it would have been Papiss Cisse as I before he injured his knee he was a constant threat.

I didn't pick him as I didn't think he was undeserving of a place, I'd just forgotten all about him when I picked my squad <laugh>

 For me the interesting one not getting a look in among the "younger" teams is Andy Carroll. Again it might be to do with the way he left, but he was outstanding for us, and certainly the closest thing we've had to a Shearer since big Al. He and Bellamy were my reserve strikers.
Pardew's first match, against Liverpool at home, he absolutely dominated, even scoring that long-range goal to make it 3-1 in added time. Was so exciting - then of course he was sold to them in a couple months. Probably partly due to that very match.
