Summer Transfer Window 2019

O think to some extent, if a player linked is over 25 then we aren't after him

We've signed two players so far, both of whom will be over 25 when the season starts. So I would say that extent is a pretty small one.

I personally think he can stay fit this time, but we'll see

I hope for his sake that he can. Always liked Jimmy Mac and I'd like him to be able to keep playing at a decent level

I'll wish him well if he does leave. During that first season he was immense, just a shame that injuries completely derailed his time here

When fit I really like him as a player and he’d probably be my pick after Gomes and Gueye. He’s one of the few that I’m ok if he stays and I’m ok if he goes.

Same

He's also likely not close to being on Schneiderlin or Sandro money either, so he's a cost effective option

If he's happy to stay and be back up then I'll be fine with that, but if he wants to play more then there'll be no hard feelings if he wants to move on

The lad quite literally broke his body for us, he's alright with me

We don't need back up for the treatment table. Sadly I think it's proven beyond any doubt that his body can't handle the intensity and physicallity of the Premier League. Hope we'll find a suitor for him, nothing against him as a person or his attitude as a footballer, but we've been paying (massive) wages to a sicknote for too many years already.

I was attempting ironic/sarcasm....
Are you ITK?

No

Wasn’t his last injury a freak incident rather than his body breaking down? I might be wrong on that though.

Did McCarthy play in the recent friendly? If not does anyone know why he didn’t?

Yeah the leg break would have happened to anyone regardless of their fitness history

Cos he’s crap.

I've never really got the impression that Silva wants him

There were ample opportunities to play him during the run in last season for instance but he rarely got a sniff

Came on in the derby didnt he?

Quite random.

That was one injury yes, but think his injury record with us speaks for itself.

Marco was pointing at Niasse but McCarthy dropped his Switch & leaned down to pick it up & suddenly he was on.....
