Cardiff midfielder Jason Koumas has promised to be back to his best soon after his return to the starting line-up. The Wales international made his first league start for over eight months against Hull on Saturday and is keen to cement his place in Dave Jones' side.

He said: "I felt my legs a little bit on Sunday but after eight months I have got to be happy with getting 70-75 minutes under my belt.

"I've got to try and hit the ground running now. My fitness is there but it's all about getting sharp.

"Games do come quick in this division which is good for me and we have got another busy week."
