His interview wasn't in January 2018. It was only back in December 2019. 

The quote could be interpreted as being flippant but even leaving that aside, it's not the first time his commitment has been questioned so it's a legitimate concern what James McCarthy's intentions are regarding the national side. 

As I said we'll know one way or the other soon as he's playing regularly now and hopefully he's in the squad. Should be starting over Whelan against Slovakia. 
I was referring to the seriousness of the injury and how long it can take to recover physically and mentally.Each individual is different.Granted,his commitment can and is being questioned by some but I do feel there has been a few twists and turns for him privately and professionally thats being overlooked to form an opinion by some.That said,If he is picked and refuses the call up well then we will know his priorities.On the flip side,McCarthy has history of throwing players under the bus publicly so it wouldnt be the first time he wont be putting the best team available to him on the pitch.
He should have never been given a second crack at it,that's just my opinion which belongs on another thread perhaps.

Mick went to Palace-Newcastle on Saturday.

James only Irish player fit so could be significant. I would have been of the opinion he wasn’t in the running given Mick’s recent unconvincing quotes about the likelihood of him turning up.

Do I think he’ll win the game for us? No. Is he a better option than most? Probably

I think that Mick always wanted James to be first choice and that Whelan was recalled due to the unavailability of Whelan and to a lesser extent
Artur.

James has kicked the can down the road and is not brave enough to announce his retirement from international football (the same as James McArthur)

I reckon that if James does return he will start.

Here you go James.  I saved you the bother of having to write this yourself.  Just copy and paste it to your twitter account in 2 weeks time.

If we're honest, Declan Rice was first choice...then McCarthy. So he's currently operating with his 3rd choice defensive midfielder.

Incidentally, I doubt Mick went to watch McCarthy for the craic. He must know already if James is returning. I find it hard to believe Mick would bend over backwards to drag a player on international duty, who's yet to even feature under his tenure.

Mick has already been embarrassed by Rice , Redmond and Bamford . He has learned from those experiences and has advised Arter and Westwood that he'd call them if he needed them , to avoid any more feigned injuries from those less fervent patriots . I think James McCarthy must be coming back or Mick would not have wasted time watching a match where he was the only Irish player . Here's hoping , he's better than what we have currently got .

Looks to be a hamstring injury, taken off for precautionary reasons, should get over that in a week of so right? 


"Roy Hodgson has revealed why he substituted James McCarthy for Jairo Riedewald at half-time against Brighton & Hove Albion today, explaining that the midfielder had collected a slight injury in the opening 45.

Hodgson said: "It's injury unfortunately, he was feeling his hamstring. He was tempted I think to go and give it another five or 10 minutes to see how it goes but the doc, Zaf, Ray [Lewington] and myself made a decision between us that it wasn't worth taking that chance - not when we had fully fit players on the bench like Jairo"

We will now see the clear difference in how Coleman and McCarthy will try to be ready for EIRE.  Coleman will be desperate and will burst his bollox trying to get back to fitness to be ready in time  McCarthy will use it an excuse to concentrate on his club.
