Henry backs McCarthy's decision
Henry believes McCarthy had the best interest of the club at heart when he rested players after the strength-sapping win at Tottenham before Sunday's home clash with Burnley.[LNB]The move paid off as Wolves registered a 2-0 victory to move out of the Premier League's bottom three and up to 12th position.[LNB]They have now taken nine points from their last four games since a woeful showing in the home clash with Birmingham three weeks ago.[LNB]Henry said: "It was a hugely important win and we back the gaffer 100% with his decisions.[LNB]"A few of the players were disappointed that they weren't playing at Manchester United.[LNB]"But we knew it was a big decision for the gaffer and we realise it was the best one for us and for the club. He wants the club to stay in this division. He's a great manager.[LNB]"He's done a great job for the club and I'm glad we got a result for him against Burnley, as well as for everybody else."[LNB]Henry added: "I think people will probably argue we're professional footballers and we should deal with it (the fixture list).[LNB]"In the Championship, where you play 46 games, we did. But we could play Championship games at less than 100% and still win.[LNB]"In this league it just doesn't happen. We have to be 100% every single game and I think the gaffer realised that and recognised we worked our socks off against Tottenham.[LNB]"Fair play to him and we repaid him with the win over Burnley."[LNB]Wolves record signing and top scorer Kevin Doyle echoed Henry's sentiments and felt the break gave Wolves an extra sharpness against the Clarets.[LNB]He said: "There was a lot of pressure on us against Burnley. We had listened to a lot of stuff during the week and we got a lot of frustration out.[LNB]"People were saying Burnley have had a great start to the season, and that we had a c**p start, and yet we are level on points with them.[LNB]"We could have all played at Old Trafford and still won against Burnley as well but it definitely gives you that edge.[LNB]"It justified the manager's decision. We got the three points, we are 12th-13th in the league and I am sure it makes him a happy man."[LNB][LNB]
