Sunderland did look bereft of ideas, certainly a concern considering the investment. If you can keep the ball on the ground for Cisse and in the air for Jones you should be ok!

Cisse cannot header ye we lumped balls at him all day and the preoccupation Jones, Cisse and Diouf have with running into the box in a straight line makes them so easy to defend against that even Titus Bramble would not get confused by their movement. Yes he won everything in the air against Cisse but that does not say a lot as Alan Wright is probably a better winner of headers. The fact he was skinned for pace by Cisse and had to foul him and seemed to struggle to deal with Jones' power and had to foul him does not make him man of the match. It makes him lucky to get away with it.
