The Fish 9063 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Who is/was your most under-rated Newcastle player during your time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 3509 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Tough one that. Given? Solano? Coloccini during the 11-12 season was outstanding. All 3 deserve more credit than they get imo. Speaking not in terms of nufc fans but the general football world. Overall I'd say Given, he was the best shot stopper in the league for a 3-4 year period.

Tooj 17 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Scott Sellars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 30591 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I think Robbie Elliot was a very underrated player in his first spell at the club. Solid full-back who could play a bit and also could do a job in the centre of defence and in midfield. Never quite the same after breaking his leg as soon as he went to Bolton.

PaddockLad 14711 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Scott Sellars. Mark McGee, made all the space that Mickey Quinn scored his goals in See also Paul Goddard who almost single handedly kept us up in 87. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 30591 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Made similar mention of Sellars a few weeks back http://www.toontastic.net/board/topic/26952-nufc-pictures-from-days-of-old/?p=1304228 quality player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Irving Nattrass. Whether at right back,left back or central defence,he would stroll through games marking his man out of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1117 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Sellars, Mcghee and Goddard are great shouts. Others I would include would be David Kelly (obviously), Gavin Peacock, Glenn Roeder. Possibly Beresford too. I think people have already forgotten just how good he was.

Gemmill 35004 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Overrated - Ben Arfa ( ) Absolute nonsense, he'll end up somewhere like Milan when he leaves us. ........He did what? He went where? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 14711 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Aye Bez had Psycho and Winterburn in front of him, hardly a sniff of a cap with those two around, suppose LeSaux just made things worse too. Great attacking fullback, definetly not a wingback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 When you think about it, England has produced some really good leftbacks over the last 20 - 30 years. Obviously we've not been so strong on the right as shown by the fact that Glen Johnson has over 50 caps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1117 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 acuna mccreery beresford guthrie sellars shola Would say Acuna and Guthrie are way overrated by some personally. I did think about saying McCreery myself but I think he's more forgotten than underrated. But the same could no doubt be said about some of the ones I did say.

Tooj 17 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Kevin Gallacher did a very good job for us under the circumstances btw. Could probably put him in that bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played alright in Europe but waa dreadful in the Premiership for the most part. yes, you're right of course, he wasn't class. but then no one in that team was really. it was kind of the beginning of the end of what had been a canny few years. but he was definitely underrated because he ended up scoring a few goals, something no one really saw coming, we all thought he was that shit.

Tooj 17 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Btw I quite liked him even though he was shite if that makes sense? Could tell he felt privileged every time he put the shirt on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
