McCarthy backs his strike duo
Thursday 3rd September 2009, 1:52PM BST.
Wolves boss Mick McCarthy believes strike duo Kevin Doyle and Andy Keogh can be “a force to reckoned with” in the Barclays Premier League this season.
Club record signing Doyle was forced to miss the start of the campaign after undergoing a hernia operation following his £6.5 million switch from Reading.
But he and Keogh looked impressive when they started a match together for the first time in the weekend draw with Hull at Molineux.
McCarthy said today: “I thought Kevin was excellent against Hull. Him and Keogh together were a real handful to their defence.
“It was especially encouraging bearing in mind they’d not really played together before that game.
“Doyle has certainly added that bit of quality. He was our big summer signing then he gets a hernia which was frustrating for him.
“He was only 80-90 percent fit against Hull but having him back has made a big difference to us.
“I am confident Kevin and Andy will be a force to be reckoned with this season because they don’t give anyone a minute’s rest.”
