Stephen Carr

[shelfsider]

Spent the weekend in Spain and met Stephen Carr a few times. Can I just say he is the nicest guy you could ever meet, a real gentleman! If only more pros were like him.

 

[taricco]

Probably because of all the trophies he won with Newcastle.

Ah, seems I'm still bitter...

What did he say about his time at Spurs?

 

[talkshowhost86]

Did he at any point spank one in from 35 yards completely out of nowhere?

Absolutely fantastic player for us. There was a spell for us when their was no better attacking right back in the world

Roberto Carlos anyone?

Roberto Carlos anyone?

If Carr had faced Carlos in that time we’d have been ordering another taxi for Roberto. Decent free kicks mind....

When you said spell I thought you meant longer than the 90 minutes against Man United.

Your obviously not a season ticket holder who watched him week in week out in those great George Graham days?

Was fantastic for quite a long spell

Roberto Carlos anyone?

Wasn't he a left back though?

 

[garryparkerschest]

Wasn't he a left back though?

For some strange reason I thought (We all know what thought did!) he said full back. I've not seen a better full back than Carlos.

Attacking Right Back, umm?,

I would say Cafu was better right back at the time but Carr is the best right back I've seen at the lane in my time being a fan.

Carr was sitting right behind me with a bunch of other players at a Leyton Orient v Spurs friendly in 97 (our first glimpse of Ginola and Ferdinand in Spurs shirts I think) and enjoyed chatting to us. Nice man, very good player.

 

[nailsy]

As he went to take the shot I was thinking "Don't shoot from that far out".

Fantastic goal.

Maldini used to play left back. A bit out there, but Roberto Carlos was a bit overrated, imo. Philipp Lahm > Carlos by some margin for me

Carr is (probably) the best right-back I've seen in the prem.

Hyperbole much?!

Cafu, Zanetti and Sagnol were all another level

Granted though, Carr was awesome in his day.

Unfortunately, Carr was never the same after his injury.
