Hopefully he has now set the standard for himself that he intends to live up to and even surpass in future games. I felt that against Man Utd Gareth Barrys successful containment job on the likes of Fellaini gave McCarthy more freedom on the pitch. But what do I know? Bugger all, that's what :D

?? didn't you know that Barry is finished as a footballer and should have been melted down for glue at Christmas because he's such a liability?

Barry looks good next to a superhuman McCarthy. Next to any other midfielder or a half fit McCarthy he has been utterly woeful. Besic was playing well for a lot of the season yet Barry threw him under the bus with completely negligent performances next to him. Now he's happy though because he can go back to getting all the plaudits as McCarthy busts a gut holding the midfield together.

So what you're actually saying is Barry and McCarthy is still out best midfield Partnership.
I agree.

Don't think I said that. It's the best midfield partnership of all the pairings that include Barry.

I actually think Gibson McCarthy is probably our best pairing whilst I'd love to see Ross and James paired again like they were in last season's home Derby once Barry went to left back and we just tore them apart. I also refuse to believe McCarthy and Besic couldn't work. All I will say is McCarthy Barry is better than Barry Besic or Barry Barkley.
 

Who is his agent mate ?
Willie McKay

Willie McKay, one of football’s most notorious agents, has been declared bankrupt at a hearing in Glasgow. McKay, who used to run his agency business from the multi-millionaire tax haven of Monaco and had racing stables in Yorkshire, revealed assets of just £987, while court documents detailed that he owed £713,292.

yup, would also go with Gibson-McCarthy from the limited amount of time that pairing has had. I'm wondering if the pushing of McCarthy forward thing is to do with Besic taking over from Barry. Besic-McCarthy didn't seem to work (but might do in time) but if McCarthy was a bit less defensive they might trip over each other a little less in there and allow Besic to be a more normal lone DM which he's more used to.

I personally can't see how youve come to that conclusion. Barry-McCarthy is our best combo imho
