Micky Gray thinks Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain would be a good fit at Newcastle
Newcastle are currently top of the Championship and look like they could return to the Premier League next season.
The Magpies have been free-scoring this term and are the league's most prolific side with 62 goals.
However, if Rafa Benitez's side do return to the top flight, former Sunderland defender Micky Gray believes they will need more firepower.

And the 42-year-old thinks Arsenal duo Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain would be perfect signings for the Toon.
When asked about Walcott and Oxlade-Chamberlain, Gray told talkSPORT: "They do like their wide players.
“They’ve certainly had some very talented wide players over the years.
“And with Newcastle coming up, it’s a stadium that has found it difficult over the years to attract players.
"But if they are to get back to where they belong then these are the type of players that they have to look for.”
Newcastle currently sit top of the Championship - one point clear of second-placed Brighton.
