Posted July 2, 201114 yr I watch a crazy amount of football from all the major leagues around the world including International football. I particularly focus on younger players. Players coming up through International underage tournaments and club youth teams. I like to do my own scouting if you like, One particular player I have taken a liking to over the past 2 years or so is James McCarthy. He is a 20 year old midfield player from Scotland, Playing for Wigan Athletic in the Premier League. I feel he will be a great midfielder and he is good enough to be a Chelsea. Considering some of the most average English players are selling for £20m. James McCarthy could move for just £10m which I think is a fantastic bargain, What do you guys think?
July 2, 201114 yr Almost sounds like a propper FM scout report haha Dont think AVB have any interest in him but what would I know! Edited July 2, 201114 yr by Andreas
July 2, 201114 yr we were rumoured to have an interest in him a while ago, but then again, we are linked with almost everyone. Think he would be a good signing if we got him.
July 2, 201114 yr Author If there are any Scottish fans on here can you explain why McCarthy refused to play for Scotland. He has played for Ireland but only I friendly's I think? Can he still go back to Scotland? What is the real situation? Edited July 2, 201114 yr by BrazilBlue
July 2, 201114 yr If there are any Scottish fans on here can you explain why McCarthy refused to play for Scotland. Surely it has something to do with the last word in that question...
July 2, 201114 yr Surely it has something to do with the last word in that question... totaly uncalled for thats just wrong
July 2, 201114 yr If you've seriously taken offense to that comment then I have no idea how to respond - apologises. Edited July 2, 201114 yr by Gem
July 3, 201114 yr Last season (I think it was against Blackburn although I'm far from certain) McCarthy did some keepie-uppies in the box before volleying it in. Sign him up.
