Shall we not give it another 3-4 months to see how we get on? Its still very earl days.

 

Tiote, Cabaye, Marveaux, Ben-Arfa, Santone, Abeid.....

 

Havent these all arrived under his watch and probably a few others who slip my mind?

 

 

 

James Robert Perch.

i understood perch was a Hughton signing and it was him that persisted to get his signature, although somebody feel free to correct me if im wrong

Some really good signings have come from Carr, as well as some solid ones too.

 

I honestly think Obertan will suprise a few people and become an astute piece of business at 3m too.

 

The big test will be identifying (and signing) a good striker.

I think Hughton would be given the credit though Calderwood played a part in him coming. What about Best was he a Hughton signing ?

 

At a guess: Best, Ba, Campbell and Perch were not Carr selections.

 

I think Gosling might have been.

what are we actually saying about these signings? 

 

french league winning captain

well known french ligue 1 winger bound for liverpool

5 times (?) ligue 1 winner and all round famous frenchie ex-wonderkid

italian u21 international and 'new maldini'

 

as much as carr, unless it falls under his remit, the people who are sniffing out the deals and finalising them deserve massive amounts of credit imo

True, but who are we talking here, Llambias? Charnley? Are there others who actually do most of the spadework?

 

Either way, top stuff on the recruitment side, staff as well as the players tbh.

 

Shame they fucked up so royally when it came to the task of getting a goddamn striker in.

I agree and assumed it was Carr doing the sniffing.

Aye nobody had heard of people like Hatem Ben Arfa of Davide Santon before Carr found them.

Think the credit the scout team gets is more to do with finding out that these kind of players would be available and interested in joining due to whatever circumstances and for coming to that conclusion before other clubs do, Cabaye is the ultimate example of this IMO.

Modern day scouting not just about unearthing raw talent. Those are the rarities.

 

Im sure lots of people might have known how good Cabaye, Ben-Arfa, and co are but the bottom line is we got them.

Chatty Man's dad this week will be in Europe taking in Leverkusen v Genk on Weds & Standard Liege v Copenhagen on Thurs, but no names revealed.  I guess Barnetta is the obvious one for Weds tho.

 

 

Thought he was crippled for a few months?
