I maintain that we are entitled to pick the team we should pick,\u201d McCarthy told reporters.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I trust Sir Alex and his integrity and winning mentality to do the right thing. I haven&#8217;t got a problem.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It probably helps that it makes them as nervous as we will be.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am never quite sure whether it is a good thing or a bad thing when you go into a game against a team that is relaxed and nothing to lose.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Does it take the edge off their performance or does it give them an ability to relax with a bit of gay abandon.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not sure which is the help but we both need points and, if either of us win the game, it&#8217;s job done.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Despite the pressure of relegation, McCarthy maintains he his thriving in his role at Wolves as they attempt to secure their Premier League status for another term.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Am I enjoying it? I am enjoying it all. What is the alternative &#8211; go and play golf?\u201d said McCarthy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is an absolutely fabulous job despite all the pressures and attention I get.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t want to do anything else &#8211; I love it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you want to be successful at whatever you do then there are going to be days that put you under a lot of pressure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>McCarthy also praised winger Matt Jarvis for remaining professional after being dropped in their last match against Sunderland, and the Wolves boss feels a similar kind of man-management happens across the Premier League.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He Jarvis came on against Sunderland last weekend as a substitute and he was brilliant. I think he has handled it particularly well,\u201d said McCarthy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have never played in a team yet when one player has the divine right to play in every game, never has a bad game and never gets left out.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think Wayne Rooney gets left out from time to time.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I seem to think Didier Drogba and Fernando Torres get left out from time to time so why is it that Matt Jarvis has a divine right to play in this team along with anyone else? They just haven&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If I can conjure something else up on Sunday by leaving someone out then I will do my best.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Go here to see the original:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.goal.com\/en-gb\/news\/2896\/premier-league\/2011\/05\/20\/2496216\/wolves-manager-mick-mccarthy-unconcerned-over-manchester-uniteds-\" title=\"Wolves manager Mick McCarthy unconcerned over Manchester United's potential changes against Blackpool\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wolves manager Mick McCarthy unconcerned over Manchester United&#8217;s potential changes against Blackpool<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> By Chris Davie 20 May 2011 23:19:00 Mick McCarthy &#8211; Wolverhampton (PA) Related Links Teams Players Wolves manager Mick McCarthy maintains he is unconcerned about the strength of the side Sir Alex Ferguson will select against Blackpool.
