The Bafana Bafana striker was named Man-of-the-Match last Friday when City beat Highlands Park 3-0 in the Nedbank Cup last 16 tie at the Cape Town Stadium.
“I am going to need every quality player I have at my disposal. Now I’ forced to try and juggle players around. It’s not getting easier for me, with games coming up at this pace,” McCarthy told SunSport.
“Kermy has to be nurtured more. He hasn’t played for a long time. So for us to expect him to just fly in and do miracles would be unfair,” added McCarthy.
Erasmus is expected to play a key role when McCarthy’s men come up against Maritzburg United at the Cape Town Stadium on Saturday.
