2017/18 James McCarthy

Absolutely. Firstly, he's nowhere near fit enough. Secondly, there doesn't seems to be any apparent reason he was needed. Some poor decisions from Portly Sam today.

Sam had made a couple of poor decisions today. Disappointing. 3dms...If he would like to rotate why not play a match fit Beni? He rotated a recently good CB pairing but not a knackered DCL who can't score.
 

Put his international career ahead of his fitness too many times. Cost him the chance to be the player he could have been. Needs to be moved on.
 

Still only 27. If he can get fit he becomes more sellable. He's been either injured or awful in his last 2 and a half seasons. But, if he plays a few games (or parts of games) we might be able to sell him before 31st Jan. Some saying £5m would be acceptable. Think he could go for more than that. Just checked to see how long left on his contract. He's contracted until 2020. Should get more than £5m if there's a club interested.
 
Happily lose Robles, Stekelenberg, Williams, Jagielka, Keane, Martina, Schneiderlin, McCarthy, Besic, Lennon, Bolasie and Mirallas on the strike of midnight tonight. Not a single one would be missed.

Think he could go for more than that, but then again I'm not sure what his contract situation is.

Till June 2020.

The thing is he barely stay fit for 2 years. And he had been poor for 2 seasons before that.

Pathatic selection yesterday when the manager left out Beni, Vlasic, Lookman and even Klaassen while giving him a chance and he repaid that with that super crap pass to give them a goal. He should never get near the team on Monday. It was like a practicing match for him he was jogging around.

He can’t.
 
Hate this fella. We'll only get about 5m for him when he is finally sold - but I'd give him away tbh.

Get a grip mate. You "hate" McCarthy? What are you 9 and in the dinner queue at school? Everyone can have different opinions but it's pretty tragic to use such an adjective for one of our own players.

For my part I think he has the inate class that many of our players do not possess. He needs to stay fit and get game time. In my opinion, on his day, he is an absolutely top class midfielder.
