 The "Coventry Telegraph" described McCormack as "a no-nonsense tough-tackling midfielder who is prepared to put his body in places others wouldn't.He has a similar style of play to fellow countryman Roy Keane and while he has not quite reached the same level as the former Manchester United skipper, he has adopted the same dogged and determined style of football".McCormack began taking his coaching badges in late September 2014 and hinted that he is interested in entering coaching and management after his playing career is over.
