philiprfc 1,799 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 If Ange is their Pedro, McCarthy feels like their Dorrans. (As much as we all wanted Dorrans to work out) It's a hit and hope signing, rather than sensible. Essandoh, BlueKnight87 and magic8ball 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hart hasn't played any regular first team football in years and Mccarthy is an injury prone midfielder. Our midfield will absolutely boss him. It's quite funny to see the taigs trying to big these 2 up as game changers. Remeber when they said guys like Robbie Keane and Duffy would do the same 🤣 The Specky Forum Organiser and Lovenkrands72 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnsey 1,540 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 McCarthy, like Hart, was very good back in the day. However, he's now 30 and has struggled with injuries for years. Had they signed him for 12 months with an option of extending, you'd probably have to say it's a risk worth taking but 4 years? That is utterly insane. Rumours that the manager didn't want them seem to make sense as I can't imagine a guy who wants his players to empty the tank every single match wants his main midfielder to be a guy that has managed around 30 games (minutes wise) in 5 years.

Popular Post Lovenkrands72 479 Posted August 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 3, 2021 Can’t believe they have signed Hart on a 3 year and the very injury prone McCarthy on a 4 year deal. What an expensive waste of a jersey that could turn out to be should his injuries continue to hinder his career. Hopefully their poor start to the season continues, this should kill off any confidence that Joe Hart might have left in the tank. Hopefully not jinxing it but I’m not worried about these signings one bit. And all those smelly bastards buzzing about these signings will hopefully be brought back down to earth again after we smash them on the 29th.

Gman36 3,456 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 2 minutes ago, The Specky Liar said: 4 year deal for McCarthy, that's fucking wild Have they agreed a lower weekly wage in the hope of punting them for nothing in a year or two if it doesn't work out? 3 and 4 year contracts sound like madness though. Seems like two pish signings but can't slag them too much for that, we've had our fair share of hasbeens through the door in recent years. But fingers crossed two panic buy duds to appease them.

TartanTeddy 765 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Contract lengths are interesting for two veteran players - McCarthy on a four year deal, and Hart on three years. That's a lot of money tied up in, relatively speaking, older players. If they fail, they'll be really hard to shift without a significant pay off. Ans as has been said above, never been so happy the day we moved from signing Barton's and Beattie's and moved to picking up guys like Aribo, Kamara and Alfie Clearly both upgrades on what they have, but not exactly playing the long game or setting themselves a foundation for the future. plymouthranger 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Traive 23,212 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Over five million in contracts that will need to be paid up when it all goes tits up because they’ll struggle to sell either of these two at any price, ever.

ritchieshearercaldow 22,242 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Can’t see MacCarthy being a starter in most games, he’ll be used as a sub to shore up the mid field either when they’re getting pumped or holding on to a 1 goal lead.
