McCarthy - Plaudits mean nothing without points
Wolves manager Mick McCarthy admits he is taking no solace from the praise his team have won for their recent performances.
McCarthy's men take on Arsenal at Molineux , completing a nightmare five-game run that will have seen them play all the current top four in the Barclays Premier League, including Manchester United twice because of their Carling Cup meeting.
Wolves have played well in that period, but so far have only one win, against Manchester City, to show for their endeavours. They were denied a draw at Old Trafford on Saturday as Park Ji-sung's injury-time winner earned Manchester United a 2-1 win.
"My team's performances against Chelsea (when they lost 2-0 at Stamford Bridge) and against Manchester United at Old Trafford were terrific, but we got nothing for them," McCarthy said.
"So while you get lauded for your football, you've got to win.
"That's at any level, whether it's winning and staying the Premier League, which is seen as a success for us, or the top teams winning trophies. We'll all be judged on that."
