JENAS DELIGHTED AS DUO RETURN

The England international explained: "It is an excellent time to get Craig back, because we've got a tough fight to get fourth spot in the league.

"He has been a very important player for us over the last two seasons, and we've definitely missed him this season.

"When he is in the side, he gives us another dimension in attack, and his partnership with Alan Shearer is right up there with the best of them.

"He has the ability to scare defenders. He runs at them with the ball and he doesn't give them time to settle.

"And we've got Lee Bowyer coming back as well," added Jenas.

"It is a major boost to us at a crucial stage of the season - it has given everybody a lift to see them back.

"They are both top quality players."
