Thumbheed Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Tbf, Varane wouldnt have been Varane if he was being coached by Pardew, same for all the good players we were linked with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had signed them and Pardew/McLaren/Carver/Simpson/Stone had coached them, they'd have turned out to be utter shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Jinx Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 I would imagine they already have an idea of who they want in the door, this guys job will be to oversee contract negotiations. The most important thing is that Eddie Howe will be getting in the players he wants. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

duo Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Got to admit it comes across as such a bizzarre appointment - more bargain basement than statement of intent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRD Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Our aim this season is to avoid relegation. If he can get us the necessary reinforcements to do so this January, it is job done for a one-month assignment. Then we can look to build on in this summer. Big stakes obviously. We cannot miss a single step in January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumbheed Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 All these last few pages have taught me is that we need to bring back Carr. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 The mistake the club made was to put him on the board and then get a say in the next manager. Should have just been a scout as he was clearly good at it and sniffing out contacts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 I liked Carr. But didn’t he just pretty much only sign players from one agency? Mundial Sport or something? I’m sure someone put a link up on here once. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaztoon Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Carr realised what level the club was working at and started to look for that level type player.. Love to see him working under this new regime Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 I think Carr operated in the fringes and was ahead of his time on who and how we he was scouting…but believe I read somewhere that his methods and contacts are no longer cutting edge because technology and other clubs have made far strides in that way Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
