Doyle welcomes McCarthy praise

The Republic of Ireland forward, who was Wolves’ top scorer last season with nine goals in 33 Premier League games, told Absolute Radio: "It’s always nice if a manager praises any player.

"I’ve been lucky to have very good managers in my career; the manager I have now, Mick McCarthy, [Giovanni] Trapattoni, who is one of the best managers there’s ever been, and before that, Steve Coppell. I’ve been lucky since I’ve come to England."
