Kevin Foley has been earmarked for more central midfield duties by Wolves boss Mick McCarthy.Y! again has Foley listed as a defender, but if he's going to continue in midfield he might be a bargain signing. Of course in his run at right mid last year he didn't do too much, but still. Hard to resist the defender playing in midfield. Maybe he's this year's Mancienne, if not this year's Kevin Foley.
The Republic of Ireland international was voted fans’ Player of the Year in 2008-09 playing right-back.
But two of his three appearances have been in the central role after playing the second half of last season at wide right.
And McCarthy believes the 25-year-old has the football brain and mobility to play more in a midfield role.
“I’ve played Kevin in midfield because I know he can play there,” said the boss.
“Kev’s been versatile – right-back and right wing – and he’s very comfortable with the ball. We’ll have to play three in the middle from time to time and I like him in there because he’s comfortable.
“He gives us another option in there.”
