Hanshithispantz Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 He only has himself to blame if his targets are being overlooked tbf. I cannot blame him for just doing his job like, he's done a decent job all things considered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToonTastic Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Does anyone else think , this man has got off lightly up till now. He must carry his share of the blame for his role. Lots of players not up to starch, plus he was part of the team that decided Carver should be given a chance as manager.... Not really, the clubs just fucked up. A scouts job is to find players to fit into a structure or to find young players who might come good. He does that, he does that very well. The problem is we have nobody at all at the club who has any plan for how the team on the pitch should play which in return leads to the up and coming players being forced to play first team football all the time. Look at the difference with Southampton and Swansea. They have a similar setup but it works because the manager has final say on players playing in the first tea. Young up and coming players get a chance in the first team but aren't thrown straight in and they have a tactical plan which means they know which players they need and when one goes its easy to replace.

La Parka Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I'd imagine we are signing his 3/4/5th choice for each position. I'm sure Rivs is an example of this. I can't fault him or his network to be honest. Without it we would be even more fucked up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I want carr sacked as well, his transfers the last summer have been utter dire minus Janmaat and one of the reasons we are in desperate trouble. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EthiGeordie Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 lol sack him. you lot are funny. He is the best thing this club has and you want him to be sacked. Even last summer Jannmat, Perez and Seim are class signings. Just becuase Ashley and his cronies decided to hire some inept managers this guy shouldnt be blamed. Please separate the bad to the good.

Twinport53 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I agree with the notion that we aren't getting his 1st choice aswell. Can easily see it going: Lacazette > Aubemyang > Riviere And we chose Riviere because he was half the price. Shame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattoon Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I never really thought about it like that but it makes total sense Pardew always prattled on about having more than one target for each position and not being held to ransom. I.e. we lowball all our options until one says yes, usually third or fourth choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of players not up to starch, plus he was part of the team that decided Carver should be given a chance as manager.... I think he gives a list of players to Ashley and Charnley, that list is then broken down to who are the cheapst to buy. So on that list he may have scouted some seriously good taletn but Ashley being Ashley, he was only interested in the cheapest options. So i dont think he is a problem.

Gallowgate Toon Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Eurgh. They may well not give a shit, but why should they, when they play for a club as unambitious as we are? It's not like they have a sentimental link to us, and the overriding message from the hierarchy is that fans mean very little. You can see how lost some of them are. They've no belief in the management, the club's ethos and it's not like there's much leadership on the pitch to compensate either. It's fucking desperate. Carr's role at the club is pointless too as there's not a suitable manager for the players he recommends. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 If it's down to French players not caring then explain why Obertan and Gouffran get games, explain why defensively it's an English lad who makes 9/10 of our errors that leads to us conceding.

Wallace Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 But we only really have 2 key French players now - Sissoko and Cabella (the latter because of the fee they paid). The rest are just squad players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
