Since Carr has been at the club our signing success rate has been brilliant, the only one that hasn't been a success is Amalfitano, who on a free wasn't a major gamble (reckon we could easily sell him to a club in France) and perhaps Abeid (still young so has time)
Of course it's easy to dismiss Carr by saying the players are obviously good BUT our signings before him were very hit and miss and you only have to look at the signings of other clubs to appreciate what a good job we are doing
Obviously the sole credit can't go to Carr, he arguably plays the biggest part as identifying good people-players isn't easy BUT the other people deserve credit for making the deal happen (Pardew/Llambias/Charnley??)
Edit- Shouldn't forget agent Cabaye and Ben Arfa
