Mick McCarthy and Steve Morgan held talks

Wolves boss Mick McCarthy has held clear-the-air talks with owner-chairman Steve Morgan after his verbal dressing-room attack on the players following Tuesday's 3-0 home defeat by Liverpool.

Morgan made his feelings known to the squad after Wolves' sequence without a Barclays Premier League win was extended to nine matches.

But McCarthy insists the matter was resolved in a meeting on Wednesday and Morgan's outburst has "not eroded my authority".

McCarthy said: "It's common knowledge that the chairman came down to the dressing room.

"I've spoken to him about it and it's been sorted out. It was all done on Wednesday.

"He knows my feelings on it and that's enough for me. I don't have to give anyone a headline.

"We're second-bottom and have won two games in 21 so do I need to sensationalise anything else? We've spoken about it and it's been sorted out."

McCarthy added: "This is the first time in my managerial career a chairman has done that.

"I don't feel it erodes my authority, but we've spoken and Steve knows my views about that and all that remains private.

"There is no animosity and no hard feelings and we have moved on."

here has only been 3 players who made me hold my breath in dread when they picked the ball up anywhere near our penalty area...in their prime Scholes and Giggs... and always Drogba. Awesome player who on his day was the best striker in the world in my opinion.

remember him scoring a 25-yarder, either the season just gone or the one before, against Bolton at the Reebok. I've never seen a ball hit that hard before in my entire life. You could almost feel the shockwave from his foot contacting it 40 yards away in the stands. Didier Droga. You might not have loved him, but you just had to be in awe of him.

den Hazard, def. - 1) that girl in a club who makes eyes at you all night, who allows you to buy her a drink and walk her home arm in arm, who then gives you a suggestive kiss on her doorstep before declaring how tired she is and how she has to be up early the next day. 2) A cock tease.
