Ronaldo Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Goes further than Pardew, mind. Charnley, Carr and the 'coaching' staff all also have culpability in my eyes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye because our chief scout decided to sell him. Some strange murmurs against Carr on some of these threads lately. I'm not entirely sure what Carr's responsible for when it comes to decision making after he recommends a player? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I think we all know Carr's no chief scout. I didn't imply he'd made any such decision, either. He very clearly has Ashley's ear to the extent Ashley spends huge amounts by his standards on his recommendations. I see no evidence he tried to put a stop to this ludicrous departure. All conjecture, obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillClinton Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 As I'm bored (and stuck in the middle of a snow storm), I looked up some of his stats... He played 37 times in the league for us. 9 of those appearances he came on as a sub. 11 times he started at FB. He only started 17 games in the league at CB. In those games we won 7, lost 7 and drew 3 (-5 goal difference) Most of those game that he started at CB were random, he hardly got a run in the side at his natural position. His one decent run of games in the side (at CB) was fall of last season, which was our best period of form. Pardew didn't give this guy a chance and it's a disgrace.

LV Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 What's the story behind these 'freak and weirdo' comments about him? Did Pardew describe him as that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Still though it's hardly his fault Pardew doesn't use the players he recommends. Could he have recommended players more to his liking? Sure but we'd arguably be even worse then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Nobody's advocated him recommending players more compatible with the Pardew approach. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segun Oluwaniyi Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Just seen this on Twitter. Top ball playing CB in Europe. This statistic is more a function of the team you play in, then anything about the player themselves. Roma are tiki-taka-esque under Garcia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 The amount of comments I've seen on various social media, people saying MYM was rubbish, and saying that was why he didn't get a decent run of games. This all despite the fact Williamson was often played instead of him. Seriously, can't believe people can be so blinkered/thick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This all despite the fact Williamson was often played instead of him. Seriously, can't believe people can be so blinkered/thick. It doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things, his reputation will be restored at Roma and he'll probably go on to be an outstanding centre back for France worth double what he is now. So a few mongs in England won't understand it, I doubt he'll care. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smal Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I was so excited about him when he signed for us, like. Thought he had potential to be one of the best centre backs in the league. Probably still does, tbh. Right club at the wrong time I guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
