    Unless you could both, mooy is the far superior player and definetely what we need, energetic and strong.

    For me Mccarthy is just another tidy player that we don't need passing back and sideways.

    Highly doubt this is an Ange signing.

    Looks like McKay has been rifling through Lawells desk and found a crumpled up piece of paper from 4 years ago.

    Not "opposed" to this pre se, but it's a years late move for a player who the plc refused to pay a fee for years ago and now think it's feasible as he's * free.

    No doubt DD will sanction his wages, he's Irish after all. And nobody is any doubt of that moustachioed *' penchant for pushing the boat out for anything with a green passport.

    Is there an actual link mentioning our interest? I saw someone making a post that sounded like a suggestion. I'd be surprised if we were in, because the club has a hard-on for resale value.

    This isn’t specific to McCarthy but the language surrounding potential signings is doing my *’ nut in.

    ‘considering a move’ ‘weighing up a move’ ‘may go for’

    We don’t have time for this * in normal circumstances never mind just now when bodies need to get through the door yesterday.

    Doing my head in.

    Anyone can be considering a move. I'm considering a move to Celtic.

    Has a whiff of ‘Shane Duffy’ about it.

    Does it really?

    It's not a move that has me on the edge of my seat excited but I don't think it's like Duffy at all.

    James McCarthy is reportedly closing in on a move to boyhood club Celtic after leaving Crystal Palace.

    The 30-year-old made 49 appearances for the Eagles after signing from Everton in 2019. The midfielder’s contract expired at the South London club on July 1.

    The Scottish Mail are reporting that McCarthy is one option under consideration at Parkhead.

    The Irish midfielder grew up supporting Celtic and is now a free agent after leaving Crystal Palace.

    McCarthy was capped at Republic of Ireland U17, U18, U19 and U21 level, before making his senior debut in 2010 and has gone on to make 43 appearances for his national side.

    That's not "closing in on a move" at all. We are window shopping at best.

    Where we are as a team at the moment, signing McCarthy would make sense. IF Celtic are genuinely interested in him then for the love of Christ please just get him signed FFS.

    I'd be happy enough with this, but we really need to get a move on with fullbacks next.

    It wouldn't be the summer transfer window without the annual Mccarthy chat.
