Kenwyne will pose big problems

KENWYNE Jones will be a fearsome opponent when he returns from injury, says Sunderland captain Dean Whitehead.
The £6m buy from Southampton caused big problems all last season in his debut Premier League campaign, top-scoring with seven goals for Sunderland.
But Jones, out with a knee ligament injury since June 1, has used his absence to bulk up in the gym – offering an even more physical barrier to opposition defences.
"It'll be a massive boost when Kenwyne gets back," said Whitehead.
"He was out training last week, and even though it was all non-contact stuff, it was great to see him getting much closer to a return to the team.
"He's looking massive mind. He must have been doing hours and hours in the gym because he's much bigger than he was last season.
"If people thought he was big and strong last season, just wait until they see him now!
"He was a physical presence last season, but he's bigger now, trust me."
