triggs Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 So much flack for him yet he was far from our worst player. It's not just because of this one game in isolation though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Who knew a striker who could barely manage 1 in 4 in France would turn out to be utter bollocks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sempuki Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Who knew a striker who could barely manage 1 in 4 in France would turn out to be utter bollocks. Not Pardew seemingly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhoywhonder Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Sold a complete pup here, based on performances so far. I stand to be corrected, but he stunk the place out with every touch (or lack thereof) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 We've spent £6m-odd on a less effective player than Shola. That in itself is a fucking incredible achievement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Sold a complete pup here, based on performances so far. I stand to be corrected, but he stunk the place out with every touch (or lack thereof) Makes you wonder how bad Facundo Fereyra must be if he's worse than this lad.

Twinport53 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 He managed only 10 goals in a team with Joao Mouthinho and James Rodriguez providing assists. He was always going to be shite if he needed that kind of service just to score 10. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Not a clue what Carr was thinking with this one, like. He has absolutely nothing in his game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I think he researched a lot of strikers, went into great depth learning about them and analysing their game. He spoke to his contacts about each and presented a meticulously crafted dossier to our transfer team at which point we picked the cheapest one and threw the rest away.

What was a crap striker with a poor record costing £5m+ doing on this dossier anyway? I think Carr's allowed to get a few wrong, he's by and large done extremely well under the circumstances. And lets not forget he's not the only person that provides players now.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 At least the player we should have bought (for a mere £5m more) doesn't have 17 in 21 this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Finally saw the miss yesterday. Boy people on here are harsh. They had a great angle on the highlights show where he is all set to tap it in, but Cabella gets something on it ahead of him, and actually deflects it so it ends up hitting Riv's knee instead. The guy is cursed rather than being that rubbish Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawK Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 He's not? After Kinnear's 2nd departure from the club Pardew said he'd be getting more directly involved in transfers. He did bring in Obertan before as you know, but Colback had Pardew written all over him also. Although it's unlikely, he could have wanted Riviere too.

I'm curious - given Fatty's penchant for getting value for money - how we ended up paying £6m+ for a player who looks like £500,000 worth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
