Matthias Jaissle's strongest Newcastle United XI - according to the stats experts

The stats experts at WhoScored reveal their strongest Newcastle United starting eleven.

Newcastle United will resume their Premier League campaign with a home clash against Bruno Guimaraes and Arsenal on the other side of the third international break of the season.

It has been a challenging introduction to life in the top flight of English football for Magpies head coach Matthias Jaissle after his side struggled to find any consistency during the opening three months of the season. As it stands in the aftermath of Saturday’s battling draw at Fulham, United are sitting just in the bottom half of the table after collecting 12 points from their first 10 games.

There have been some impressive individual displays throughout the season but few players have achieved the consistency required and there is a feeling the Magpies boss is yet to find his strongest starting eleven. But how would Jaissle’s side look if it was based on average match ratings from the stats experts at WhoScored?
