The 21 year old who signed a long term contract with the Latics back in August, spoke to the press after the 2-0 victory against Stoke: “We have done really, really well and just not come up with the finishing touch. Thankfully Antolin has come up with the first and Victor the second and hopefully now we can kick on from here.”
A dominant display in the heart of the midfield alongside James McArthur set the tone for only their second home victory of the season. They didn’t give the Potters midfield a moment’s peace and were at the heart of everything that was good about the Latics play.
McCarthy reflected on the season to date and what needs to be done in order to beat the drop once again. “It’s been about time, to be honest we have been through sticky patches, myself included. I have not scored this season which is disappointing. But the main thing is Wigan and if I can do a job and we win, I will do that all day.”
