News: Jones has been the fulcrum of Sunderland's attack in recent seasons, but Steve Bruce has suggested the Trinidad and Tobago striker cannot take his starting place for granted, particularly with Fraizer Campbell pushing for a regular slot. Jones was a substitute for the 4-1 victory over Hull City last weekend after his return from international duty.
Analysis: "Fraizer and Darren (Bent) showed signs of developing an understanding and a partnership, both in training and in the match," Steve Bruce said. "We won 4-1 and now I have to decide whether to bring Kenwyne back or not. But that's what I get paid for - management is all about making these kinds of decisions."
