James McCarthy

[N.S.N.O.]

So when he turns around and says " My childhood team was Liverpool, I've always wanted to play for them " we should accept it and clap him when he returns to Goodison wearing that shirt. After all, who are we to disagree

If you're going to disagree, at least try to make a valid point mate, there's no need for strawman fallacies.

If he is a traitor to his country of birth, he will stab us in the back in the blink of an eye.

He never turned his back on his country.His country turned it,s back on him........And anyway,s he wont be going to Arsenal as he,s going to Man U,AC Milan,Real Madrid,PSG blah blah blah.Ps feel free to add any other teams as I cant be arsed..............

It's not his fault though, it's in his DNA. He has traitors blood in him from his ancestors.

Pfft, straw man!!! It's Aunt Sally on these English shores.

So Scotland never educated him, he never used the NHS in Scotland??

I find it weird how other people feel the need to try and dictate what nationality McCarthy is.

 

[Brennan]

.....I think we put an offer of a new contract on the table. Pub rumour yesterday that he's not keen to sign - Arsenal mentioned. Seems odd, he's still got a while to go on his current deal and could 'up' his money. Apparently his lady is sister to the Smith boxing brothers, so hopefully a family link with the City might want him to extend his stay.

I wouldn't pay attention to what people say in the pub. The amount of absolute jarg i hear on Walton road before every home game is incredible.

 

[Brennan]

Also, i don't get why people give any attention to these rumours. They're made up rubbish, discussing them is a waste of time surely.

Fact:He was deemed not good enough to play for Scotland.Factue to his Irish grandparents Ireland came in and took him.Not the first time that this has happened north of the border.Lots of good players have been ignored due to the fact they never played in green and white hoops or royal blue and a few of them went on to play for Ireland.Unfotunately my friend this is the reality of the situation up here.Wether he got calpol oot the chemists or read three blind mice at his local nursery is not the issue,he wanted to play football at the highest level he could.Scotland didn't allow him to.

.....I agree, the only concern I have is that there was talk of an improved contract quite a while ago and one hasn't been signed.

 

[SpurtingLesbian]

it's his agent putting it in the Press to up his bargaining chips in the contract negotiations, he does it every time. just ignore it. He's going nowhere.

 

[The Mighty Quint]

As I've said before, if the lads got his head screwed on he knows he's at a very good club with a fantastic bunch of lads at the moment, I also believe he will be very loyal to Martinez.

And I think Besic is going to be just as good if not better, just needs another season and more games to get use to the Prem, technically I think Besic is a better footballer.

I like the look of James McCarthy. I think you have another decent player here.

Right...

Thank you, I knew I was right. Glad you except my way of thinking.
