    Favourite foreign player ever to play for the Toon

    Dozens of candidates to choose from going from the Robledo brothers Ted and George from the late 40's/early 50's(how we could do with George now, 146 games in 4 seasons and 82 goals) going on to the likes of David Ginola, Laurent Robert to Krul and Dubravka.

    I'm torn between George Robledo and David Ginola with Ginola just edging it.

    Hmmm...best was probably Ginola but my favourite? Probably Shay, Pav or Jonas. Soft spot for Peter Lovenkrands in his brief time here, too.

    Loved Ginola but for me after he got sent off at Arsenal in the League Cup we never saw him at his best again imo.

    Pav for me, followed by Solano.

    Always had a soft spot for Lovenkrands as well.
