Fans choice of Newcastle team v Aston Villa

8 years ago

Using our interactive feature,  NUFC team selector, we asked you to choose your preferred formation and starting eleven for the Newcastle team v Aston Villa.

The preferred collective formation chosen was 4-4-2 with a slightly more adventurous angle to the team.

Fans overwhelmingly went for a Mitrovic/Gayle front two, although a fair few did opt for a Murphy/Gayle partnership.

Ritchie, Hayden and Shelvey were overwhelming choices, though Diame only had a 60/40 advantage over Yoan Gouffran.

Some people did go with a 3-5-2, seemingly with the main intention of not then having to choose for an out and out left-back.

Paul Dummett very narrowly won that contest from Ciaran Clark, with Lazaar in third place after he showed on Tuesday night that he was still adapting to English football.

Like the Diame/Gouffran split, the Sels/Darlow was also roughly 60/40 in the Belgian’s favour. Meanwhile, first choice centre-backs Lascelles and Mbemba faced competition from Clark and Hanley who did ok in the Wolves Cup match.

The overall fan selection showing in sliding order: Lascelles, Mbemba, Clark and Hanley.
