Berra ready for the Wolves

Berra looks set to make his Wolves debut in the Molineux clash against Norwich following his £2.3m move from Hearts.

Boss Mick McCarthy reckons Berra will have to prove himself quickly in the eyes of the Molineux faithful.

But the 24-year-old Scotland international and former Hearts captain says he can cope.

Berra said: "There is pressure involved, but it's better to have that pressure at the top of the table rather than being involved in a relegation battle.

"It's a good pressure to have and one which I'll relish to be honest. I've played in some big games and am looking forward to getting involved in some more.

"The club are in a great position at the moment and with 16 games to go it's just a case of taking things on from here. Coming into a team at the top of the league means it might be difficult to get a place but that's a challenge I'm looking forward to."

McCarthy confirmed Berra is likely to make his debut against the Canaries and reckons the new man has leadership qualities.

He said: "No one is guaranteed a place, but I haven't spent what we've spent on a centre-half for him to be sat in the stand for the next five or six weeks.

"He's a talker on the pitch and we could see that on Sunday morning in training, just in the bit that they did."
