    They have 35 points with 2 left to play. Most seasons in the EPL, 35 points is good enough to stay up.
    The team showed a lot of bottle in the last 10 or so games.

    Wolves boss Mick McCarthy is planning to strengthen his squad in the summer with moves for more British talent like Kevin Doyle.


    McCarthy has already been linked with deals for a number of players at clubs heading out of the Premier League including Frederic Piquionne, Aruna Dindane and John Utaka who faced his side on Saturday with Portsmouth.

    However, his primary focus is on attracting better home-grown stars to help the club make further progress in the top-flight next season.

    McCarthy said: "We paid good money for Doyle and he's proved to be top drawer. "

    So if we can get someone of that ilk - where you can ask him to play wide left and he does it without complaint - that would be great because he's a fabulous character.

    The biggest challenge is to get four or five players to make us better, but with a similar disposition, attitude, work ethic, workrate and character.

    "I'm not suggesting British players are better, but it's easier to integrate them. Ronald Zubar has been brilliant, but it took him about three months before he got up to the pace of the game. I wouldn't want to wait three months with four or five others. "

    If they're to improve the squad, I'd like them to be up to speed straight away."
