Ikeme pleased with Jackett backing

Wolverhampton Wanderers goalkeeper Carl Ikeme has admitted that he is pleased to have the faith of head coach Kenny Jackett.

The Wolves boss recalled the shot-stopper at the expense of Aaron McCarey last weekend for the 2-0 win over Notts County, after his recovery from a knee injury.

"It's nice for me that the gaffer has got faith in me," Ikeme told the Express & Star.

"Everyone wants to play and with how well Aaron was doing I was never really sure."

The Molineux club face League One leaders Brentford on Saturday.
