Sees little action in 1-1 draw McCarthy made two saves and conceded once during the 1-1 draw with Manchester United on Sunday.

Impact McCarthy was only tested a few times the entire match Sunday. The keeper did concede a questionable goal that should have been saved, otherwise he would have walked away with a possible win and clean sheet. After only two matches it is hard to see what form McCarthy is in right now. However, if his backline continues to step it up, he may become a top option soon enough.

The goalkeeper even made a pair of huge saves that prevented an even bigger defeat. Things won't be any easier for McCarthy on Aug. 22 as his side will face a Manchester United team that scored five times on their season opener.
