Mick McCarthy claims his Wolverhampton Wanderers side have shown they can cope with the best in the league and results will come soon that can help them climb out of the relegation places.

Wolves have not won a game for over a month and that was a Carling Cup victory over League One Notts County. In the league they have not tasted victory since the opening day and as a result they sit firmly rooted in the bottom three with only the beleaguered West Ham below them.

They were defeated by leaders Chelsea at the weekend, and now have to face Manchester City, Manchester United and Arsenal in their coming three games and the Premier League betting  suggests Wolves will continue to struggle for another few weeks.

McCarthy reckons his side can take some encouragement by the fact they caused Chelsea "many problems" at Stamford Bridge and managed to handle them "as well as most teams" have so far this season.

"That's the level of performance that we have to have week in, week out," he said.

"If we play like that against other teams we'll get results."

His striker Sylvan Ebanks-Blake has echoed McCarthy's sentiment that Wolves can recover, even if the Premier League tips hint they will have to wait a while for a win.

The 24-year-old claims it is "early days" in the league and every player at Molineux is "optimistic" that Wolves can pull out of the Premier League bottom three in the near future.
