I've been saying for a while, why I don't think this guy deserves the "free pass" he gets on here. His part played in the hiring of McClaren was a huge issue along with the lackluster recruitment.

 

The whole "trifecta" plus Moncur need to be kicked into touch if we want to be playing PL football next season, it's not that the structure is wrong, it's the people they've put into the positions of power that are woefully under performing.  A Manager that can't mange players or form tactics, a chief scout that misses more than he hits on targets and an MD who consistently makes the wrong decisions. Only one person can fix this and if he wants his big pay day next season,then he has to act and act now.

What is right about the structure?

 

It's the structure that dictates everything about the club is bargain basement. Including the MD and Head Coach. It's the structure that dictates we don't sign the likes of Payet, Cabaye & Moses. It's the structure that looks to sell anyone that's good.

Was just randomly thinking there, how much did PSG and their new owners cock up our plans particularly in that first summer? If I remember rightly, we were very close to getting the likes of Matuidi & Gameiro at the time, but their new money started hoovering up our new market. Kernts.

Signed more good than bad imo.

 

Absolute f***ing horseshit. Apart from Cabaye he's signed cheap useless unproven and unable to play in this league fuckwits

Perez is useless?

 

From reports it was not Carr who spotted Perez.

He had nowt to do with Perez, it was that weird looking Barry Manalow/ Rod Stewart tribute act thing.

Maybe he is getting instructions about price range etc.? Players like PEA and Shawcross are not coming here

Wijnaldum, Mitrovic and Mbemba are good players. Anyone with half decent knowledge of football can see that.

 

Ok Thauvin has been a complete dud so far. Colback is shit but he was a free transfer.

 

Just because the team is playing shit every week doesn't mean the signings were shit.

 

He's not going to get them all right.

 

I'd like people to break down the ones they think are bad signings.

"Good player" isn't a function that contributes to team success. You need tangibles.

 

We needed a goalscorer this season. Mitrovic is not that player. We still struggle fro goals.

We  needed a CM that can put his foot in the ball. Wijnaldum - is not that player but his goals have been key for the little points we have for sure. We still struggle to for quality at CM.

Thauvin - dud.

We needed a defender to dominate attackers of the opposition physically and in the air. Mbemba, talented lad but isn't that player. We still struggle with physical strikers - especially in the air.

 

Darlwo and the other lad aren't ready for first team PL football yet.

 

SDJ can't get in the tea,.

 

Perez is a talent. But he doesn't score enough goals. If he doesn't beat goalkeepers with a quick shot, he rarely scores. He's better playing fully up top than #10 imo.

 

Jack Colback.

 

^^^^ does not make for a good team

One of the reasons we don't have a competent left back or two good enough centre backs, only one winger, no competent central midfielders and four relatively talented players that all want to play in a number 10 type position.

 

Most unbalanced squad in the league, because of a flawed recruitment strategy. If Carr has as much say as we are lead to believe he is largely responsible for this but it all comes down to the person who over promoted the chief scout, just like the MD is the over promoted reserve team secretary. The club is rotten and always will be while it is owned by Mike Ashley.
