Curbishley: Wants Premier League return

Curbishley: Wants Premier League return

A 5-1 thrashing by West Brom on Sunday proved to be the final game in charge at Molineux for McCarthy, and Curbishley is one of the leading fancies with bookmakers to take over.

He has been out of the game since leaving West Ham in September 2008, but admits he is actively looking to get back into management at the highest level.

"If I get a phone call, then I'll speak to him. I have always said that I wanted to go back into the Premier League," he said.

"I have had opportunities to go back since I have been out of the game. The Premier League is for me, I think my record stands up. It's just that I have been out of the game for some time now.

"I feel so disappointed for Mick because he took Wolves into the Premier League, kept them there for three seasons and now he's lost his job.

"Because the prize is so great of staying in the Premier League, any manager that finds himself in the bottom three, four or five then comes under pressure. That's happened to Mick, not just because of Sunday's result, but because it's been a combination of results."

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.
