One of the all-time greats, Peter Beardsley.

When it comes to picking Newcastle United's best XI, the midfield is always the hardest to decide. With legends including: Gary Speed,Peter Beardsley alongside more recent greats like Yohan Cabaye, it really does choose to be a problem.

First up would be the left and right sided wingers. On the right hand-side is non-negotiably Peter Beardsley. Throughout his two spells at Newcastle United Beardsley bagged 276 appearances and 108 goals. Based on these stats alone Peter Beardsley is always going t be one of the greatest wingers ever to wear black and white. On the left hand side, would be a great debate between Nolberto Solano and Laurent Robert. In their time at Newcastle United they both bagged a lot of goals with Solano taking 37 goals and Robert taking 22 goals. Although Solano took more goals, Laurent Robert was a magician on the pitch and so he would start as the right winger.

In the centre of midfield, we find ourselves with many contenders: Cabaye, Ginola, Speed, Asprilla and Gascoigne. Out of all the contenders, the Newcastle greatest XI would have Gary Speed, due to consistency and Paul Gascoigne, due to his character and unpredictability in the central of their midfield.
