Wolves boss McCarthy stands by decision to drop Jarvis

Wolves boss Mick McCarthy insists it was the right decision to leave out Matt Jarvis in recent games.

Jarvis is desperate for a recall today.

McCarthy said: "He came on against Sunderland last weekend as a substitute and he was brilliant. I think he has handled it particularly well.

"I have never played in a team yet when one player has the divine right to play in every game, never has a bad game and never gets left out.

"I think Wayne Rooney gets left out from time to time.

"I seem to think Didier Drogba and Fernando Torres get left out from time to time so why is it that Matt Jarvis has a divine right to play in this team along with anyone else? They just haven't.

"If I can conjure something else up on Sunday by leaving someone out then I will do my best."
