McCarthy and young Ross...

[HarryEFC]

****ing on the ball with these songs lads..
Woahhhh, We've got the best midfield in the world,
We've got Steven Pienaar*
McCarthy and Barkley
Barry and Deulofeuuuuu, woahhhhh..
*(or Kevin Mirallas, whoevers playing)

Do not tell me this doesn't work, it does.

Hopefully Ryan Ledson lives up to his hype or that John Lundstram breaks though. Would ideally love to get Will Hughes from derby though think he would compliment Ross and james to a tee

This. Will Hughes looks very promising. If we could get him and tie up Barry for another couple of years we'd be set with younger players also hopefully developing.

I'd also like us to compete for Ryan Gauld. He could play behind the striker if Barkley drops into a deeper role. Other big clubs after him but in McCarthy and Barkley we have 2 great examples of how Martinez can develop a young players career

McCarthy is absolutely incredible. He's upped his game so much it's daft.

I'm shaking my head in wonder watching what he's doing in recent games. You'd be hard pressed to find a better player in world football who does what he does.

Astonishing.

We made 5 of the very best signings of the summer in McCarthy, Barry, Lukaku, Deulofeu and of course Martinez

(only signings who can compete with them for the impact they've had is Ozil and Remy).

To think for years we were moaning at Moyes to improve the centre of our team

 

[Chang Elephant]

just about the right age to keep going until John Lundstram breaks through

Good call mate.

Should have been done years ago. Teams with a soft CM get bullied, look at the derby matches we've suffered under that clown, playing Neville and Osman etc

OMG!!! those were horrible days

Imperative that a new centre midfielder is signed in jan. Osman is old and Gibson is injury prone.

Barry-barkley-mccarthy all doing very well but we need lundstram and another young player to come in.

I'd absolutely love this, there's no player in Scottish football that everyone has been so excited about in years. He's wonderful.

I read the exact same thing on BlueKipper when James McFadden was linked with us.

I also read the exact same thing all over the place when John Fleck was 16.

Ryan Gauld -- read something about a prodigy from scotland last week I think. Another young player in scotland whose meant to have potntial? Martinez brought in mccarthy from there so he may well take a punt?

Tsdoddy-- no idea but lundstram and grant are 2 players, we play 3 centrally in midfield and their backups of gibson and osman arent solid for whichever reason....so need someone young to come in slowly, ideally 2 or 3 young players so we have the first choice 3 and a player for each as backup and to be integrated....I was thinking lundstram would be getting close of the young lads + bring one more in permanently.

If will hughes is so good why has no one picked him up off derby yet? Seems ideal for us next to mccarthy.

I'm not so sure about the Messi comparisons but Gauld is similar to a young Joe Cole. Their young centre half Souttar and left back Roberston are also highly rated.

Hughes is in a similar position to McCarthy imo - seems to be good enough but none of the teams at the top seem ready to take a punt on him. I'm convinced he will be great whoever he signs for. I really hope it's us
