Wolves skipper sure of survival
Skipper Karl Henry is confident Wolves will avoid relegation from the Barclays Premier League if they maintain the level of performance shown against Manchester United.
United needed a late strike from Paul Scholes - his 100th Premier League goal for United - to kill off the challenge of Mick McCarthy's side, who had chances to secure at least a point.
They remain only one place above the drop zone after Hull's 5-1 hammering by Everton at Goodison Park on Sunday.
But Henry is adamant Wolves, who face fellow strugglers Burnley at Turf Moor this weekend, can beat the drop if they maintain their current standards.
Henry said: "Saturday was disappointing. I thought we made a very good side look ordinary at times and played really well, but again it's to no avail.
"You could see how much it meant to United to win the game at the end and it was by no means a comfortable victory. They had to work hard for those points.
"It's another game with the top four out the way but we can take a lot of heart from the performance.
"We played well and, although the gaffer keeps on at us about playing well but not getting anything, if we keep going like this we'll be fine."
Henry's midfield colleague David Jones echoed his sentiments but admits the Molineux outfit need to be sharper in front of goal.
He said: "It was a good performance against United, as we've been doing in recent weeks, and we limited them to very little.
"It was hard to take but we have to get on with it and start getting ready for Saturday. We just need to score some goals.
"With more performances like that between now and the end of the season I am sure we will pick up points."
