Cathal McCarthy has begun the 2026/27 Premiership season with a single appearance of 93 minutes, during which he recorded no goals, assists, shots, shots on target, key passes, or tackles. However, his defensive contribution is notable, with six interceptions in that outing, well above the defender baseline of 1.65 tackles per 90 minutes and 0.59 key passes per 90. McCarthy’s average match rating of 6.3 reflects a solid defensive presence. Although his offensive metrics are currently nil, the high interception count indicates a strong work rate off the ball, a key attribute for a defender in this competition. The season so far shows McCarthy focusing on defensive solidity rather than attacking output.
C. McCarthy has played 183 minutes across 2 appearances in Premiership, at 0.00 goals per 90 against a positional baseline of 0.06, converting 0% of 1 shots and averaging 6.56 a match.
