Ed you heard anything on James McCarthy is he still injured seems to have vanished.

{Ed007's Note - McCarthy's been back in training for a while and well on his way back to full fitness. He played in some Under-23 or 21 matches and some friendlies last month so it's just a matter of time of getting his fitness levels up to scratch.}

As Ed will testify to I’ve made no secret of the fact I’d love us to sign McCarthy. I honestly think he’ll struggle to get into the Everton team as they are overloaded with central midfielders and have been linked with Doucoure (who scored the winner against them tonight) and another French midfielder. I think McCarthy has the same battling qualities as Brown and is a ready made replacement for him and at just 27 he’s got his best years ahead of him. Obviously he’s not played a lot of football for a while due to injury so a wee loan in Jan with an option to buy would do me.

McCarthy would command a sizeable wage which would mean a guaranteed first team place. Who would you drop to play him? I think we've found Brown's replacement in McGregor.

They guy is a good player but spends far to much time injured. He's no use to us sitting in treatment room half the season.

The last thing we need is an injury prone CM. I rate Ntcham above him and he can't get in the team atm.

Kev Ntcham will get his chance again Rodgers saying Christie needs a rest.

He would struggle of get in our team at the minute too. Would be a good long term replacement for Brown if he wasn't so injury prone.
