EKACCIE

As an Accies fan I have followed James McCathy's career closely. The guy is without doubt a star in the making. When you compare the number of first team appearances against his age he has always been well ahead of players in his age group. At 17 he was the best player at Accies when they won the First Division in 2008, at 18 we was voted Scotalnd's Young Player of the Year after one season in the SPL and moved to Wigan. Now at 22 he has won the FA Cup and won a move to a top Premiership club. Time will tell but if he continues his progression he will be a star at Goodison and as I ahve always said , just wait until he reaches 26-28 age bracket , he just might be something special. He has a superb passing range, he has a bit of pace, he can tackle, he can score goals despite this lacking at Wigan he was Accies joint top scorer in the SPL. More than anything James has a football brain, he has always been able to anticipate and get in the right positions to break up play and drive forward. At Wigan he learnt to release passes earlier and raerely gives the ball away, however he makes mistakes as he is still young , but with the right coaching and the better players Everton have beside him, in years to come you might think £13m is a bargain.
