ManU fan - "Alot of talk surrounding Lukaku, and there's no doubting the lad is top class, but I think the move for McCarthy is being hugely underappreciated. Ask any United fan who isn't an idiot (there are some, honest!) who they would prefer between Fellaini or McCarthy, and most would say McCarthy. I'm a big fan of him, and a £12/13m fee is great for a player of his quality is excellent business. For me, he looks like an amalgamation of Scholes and Darren Fletcher. His composure when playing the pass is immense, and his tactical awareness is incredible for his age. You get alot of tenacity and a bit of nastiness in him too, like we got from Fletch. Fellaini is a very good player, and he probably offers us alot of the qualities we are missing, but I think McCarthy gives you all that and more. What he lacks in being a brute target man, he makes up for with phenomenal technique. Rarely dispossessed, great passer, plays a very non-British style of play. I believe Fellaini is perhaps the better player right now, but I think McCarthy is not too far off at all, and his potential is arguably alot higher. At 22, we haven't seen anywhere near his best yet. I'm looking forward to seeing him flourish at a top half PL side, and I believe he could become talismanic for Everton, more so than Fellaini was. Hope he does well!"
