I wouldn't mind McCarthy and think he'd be a natural successor to Fletcher.
Mobile, covers a lot of ground, tackles and can pass the ball. At 26, is the right sort of age with plenty of Premier League experience. Let's not forget he's been a regular for a pretty decent Everton team for the last few years.
I remember watching him years ago for Wigan against us and some of the ground he covered that day was ridiculously. I remember Jerome Thomas had their full back and toast but McCarthy was there on the cover every time...
Fletcher is coming to the end and is pretty poor on the ball but still covers the ground and does a good job at defending, McCarthy could come into this position and do a similar job, but better.
Wouldn't fancy Cleverly though...
