Dean Saunders praises Karl Henry attitude

Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Dean Saunders has admitted that he is impressed with Karl Henry's reaction to being dropped from his side's starting lineup.

Henry has been a constant fixture in the starting XI at Molineux since the arrival of Saunders, but he was replaced by David Davis for the club's 2-1 win over Bristol City last weekend.

However, Saunders has revealed that he was pleased with the 30-year-old after he remained full of support for his teammates in the dressing room ahead of Saturday's game.

The 48-year-old told the club's official website: "I've spoken to Karl, and he's shown a great attitude.

"On Saturday - all the way through the build-up and then during the game itself, he was totally supportive of everybody, and that's the reaction I want.

"That's shown me and everyone else what a good professional he is."

Henry has made 257 appearances for Wolves since he joined the club from Stoke City in 2006.
