Ipswich manager Mick McCarthy: Aston Villa interest a compliment

Ipswich manager Mick McCarthy has again spoken of his interest in the Aston Villa job.

McCarthy was speaking after their draw with Wolves on Saturday.

He said: "I view it as a compliment. I can't help but feel it is a compliment when clubs of that ilk think that I am doing a good job as a manager bearing in mind that I have got two similar clubs promoted.

"But I have for a job here and there is nothing I can do about whatever they are saying. I won't even talk about what another job might entail.

"We have seven games and we want to get in the play-offs. My focus is on trying to get in the play-offs."
