Gary Johnson has heaped praise on his Yeovil assistant Nathan Jones as he continues to deputise at left-back for the injured Kelly Youga.

Former Charlton defender Youga has barely played 45 minutes for the Glovers since his arrival last month, giving Jones a new lease of life away from the touchline. "Jonesy is a great pro. I was the one who brought him here in the first place but I did not have long with him as I was not around for long after he came," Johnson told the Western Gazette. "He is a good coach, he works well with the lads and they respect his enthusiasm for the game. It's his enthusiasm that keeps him going and he has been a part of our recent success. "Jonesy has hit a new lease of life at the moment which is good. "It has been disappointing that we have brought Kelly in and from day one he has not been fully fit."
