Marveaux remaining calm about Newcastle return

Sylvain Marveaux can't wait to play again for Newcastle United but says he will not rush his comeback.

The 25-year old winger has not played since the November 5 meeting with Everton after undergoing hip and groin operations and although he is chomping at the bit to get back on the pitch, he is well aware that he needs time to fully recover.

"I'm not thinking of playing again yet - I want to do it step by step," he told The Gazette.

"I'm working to train again. I don't know if I will play, because I haven't trained for two months now, but if I can help, I will.

"It's getting better now. The worst - surgery and everything - is behind me, and I just want to get on the pitch."
