Was 6mill a club record for a full back leazes? Bargain basment tbh, I guess your man didn't see them as important as they don't sell many shirts

 

 

Pistone [4.5m] and Domi [about the same] were signings whose fees/expenditure could not be sneezed & scoffed at, especially in what was a depressed market, comparatively speaking when looking at the prices thrown about for quality & emerging talent these days.......... and let's not forget Barton, the most expensive British defender at the time.

 

Having said that Man United's 'reported interest' in Miguel [during the European Champs where he impressed ie. the Summer when we signed Carr] effectively priced us out the market. At the other end of the scale [fees paid] Seitaridis was a missed opportunity, when Porto signed him prior to the aforementioned championships, whereas we/the board opted to look at him sign him based on his Euro showing.

 

Whereas your man's record [in terms of 'misses' in the transfer market]by comparison reads like a motorway pile-up.

 

 

What are you even on about? Are you justifying signing Stephen Carr because Man Utd was linked with Miguel in the papers?

 

The lad starred during the aforementioned tournament. It's a rule of thumb that asking prices are raised accordingly - Man United were scared off as well, by a 10m+ pricetag slapped on by Benfica.

 

Remember this is the same club & manager [Fergie] who have had their fingers previously burnt by paying large fees for players on the back of a break-out performance, at a major tourney ie. Porbosky. Ironically by the same club as well.

 

As for the signing of Carr. An international defender with leadership qualities, who was probably in need of a change in scenery, as well as a turn in fortune on the injury front. A justafied & cost-effective gamble at the time, for a player of premiership pedigree.

 

Wenger signed Overmarrs despite major question marks hanging over the player's durability, as MO was still on the rebound from a knee reconstruction. An educated gamble on Wenger/Arsenal's part, and it payed off. Sometimes they come off. Of course the alternative being we could've trowelled through the lower divisions looking for mid-20's 'chancers', players who haven't cut the grade in their respective lower leagues ie. Perch'esque targets.

Why don't you ask the relevent manager/s then. It's their call, are you still a misguided believer of the whole 'Fat Controller' myth.

 

Why slate a regime who previously backed their respective managers judgments when either fullback slots were marked for overhaul, whether they be for footballing reasons - or in Souness' case for non-footballing reasons.

I don't think you saw enough of Carr [prior to his knee recon], otherwise you wouldn't be throwing around such rash statements.

 

...................... btw we've signed players with dodgy fitness records as well under the previous regime, moves that payed dividends as well. A particular Andrew Cole springs to mind, and his record was shocking on this front before KK signed him. As said before they sometimes come off & sometimes they dont, that's the volatile nature of what is a speculative market.

Carr cost us £2m. Why would Spurs, a club we were above at the time, sell us a player of any quality for that much? That's the thing about a "lower league chancer" for similar money, they are small clubs who can be forced into selling quality players for relatively small fees. If Spurs are selling you one for that much, they obviously think they have better. Why would we want a worse right back than a team below us?

What. The. Fuck.

 

 

The point has clearly escaped you even if it was sarcastic, given the 'note handed/passed to Shepherd, by Souness' originated straight from the horse's mouth ie. Souness. It's a relevant point given there's a belief that Owen was FS's signing, and that our buying strategy [under successive managers] was somewhat geared around FS playing out his own FM fantasy.

 

BTW, although it's taboo given his stature, but i'm more than prepared to question his final two season's management here [and i've put it on record here before, with the so-called 'whys'], and more than happy to admit that the board was justafied in putting a succession plan in place [by removing Robson - 04/05 being his last season] as brutal as it was.

 

The mistakes were Hall Jr prematurely hitting the panic button, and probably not sacking him prior to the 04/05 Summer transfer window, when the board must have had some reservations about his management at the time - as there should have been earlier, in the wake of him setting upa defensive rearguard [playing away from the team's strengths, as he did in the season's opening month] in the second leg against Partizan. That second leg tie, and the corresponding fixture [which tied in with Robson's tactical reshuffle - particularly on the left flank, with Robert employed too deep] period killed our season.
