McCarthy praise for Moyes

Wolves manager Mick McCarthy has paid tribute to Everton manager David Moyes. The two teams clash on Saturday at Goodison Park, and McCarthy is full of praise for his counterpart. He admits to being a huge admirer of what the Scot has achieved with Everton. "David has done a great job at Everton," he said. "They have been getting better and better. He has done well and got the best out of everyone. "He has won the manager of the year twice so he is recognised by his peers as well for doing a very good job. "But to get beyond finishing fifth takes an extra level of investment which I don't think they will have." McCarthy also insisted that he has no intentions of going to Merseyside looking for a draw. "My view is that I would sooner try and win the game," he said. "There is nothing worse than setting out to try and get a draw and then being beaten, especially as I do beat myself up about things on a Sunday morning. "This league can be very unforgiving if you go into games with no optimism and then go and sit back and have no desire to try and win the game. "In fact I find it more unforgiving when you don't try and win the game and I know we won't create too many chances with one up front."
