6 Current Newcastle Players Who Would Have Been Keegan's Entertainers

4. Gigi Wijnaldum

Janmaat's Netherlands teammate Georginio Wijnaldum has proved somewhat of a steal since arriving on Tyneside - a notable notch of four goals against Norwich City at St James' being the pick of the performances to date. He's looked a classy addition from the off and the attacking threat he poses would certainly be one that Keegan wouldn't pass up. Can anyone remember a certain Rob Lee and his hat-trick of headers away to Antwerp? Another similarity to Lee was the way that Gigi was sold the Geordie dream by the manager, although McClaren's pitch probably didn't involve how close Newcastle was to London! Many could argue that Manchester United's smash and grab of last season's title-winning PSV side saw them come out with the wrong gamechanger when they opted to splash the cash on Memphis Depay. One United's loss is certainly another's gain.
