Wolves record signing Kevin Doyle is confident Wolves will avoid the drop back into the Championship. Doyle said: "We've looked good so far and, if we can keep our confidence up and keep working like we did against Hull, we will have no problems.

"It won't be just a survival battle if we can play like in that game and in the other matches we've played so far.

"Away to Manchester City, they had chances but we could have nicked a draw. Against West Ham here we looked good, even though we lost, and we won at Wigan who in the previous game had beaten Aston Villa.

"If we can keep believing we can do it, we will be fine."

Doyle added: "The squad is similar to what we had when we got promoted at Reading. There are lots of lads who have never played in the Premier League before, excited and hungry and eager to do well and also very good players.

"We had that at Reading. We finished eighth in the league, one point outside of Europe.

"We had a similar start then to now at Wolves as well, three or four points from four games, and we went on from there and I hope we can do the same."
