Kenwyne Jones is happy to continue playing for Sunderland boss Roy Keane.

The Trinidad & Tobago centre-forward told The Journal: "He doesn't let anyone rest on their laurels and that's a good thing, of course it is. We are not in a position where we want to be slacking off and giving away games.

"He didn't end up being the player he was without a lot of hard work and dedication and he expects that from his players now that he is a manager. He works hard at being a manager and I think he will get better.

"He is still improving in every way and he tells us as players that you learn something new every day, I think he says the same as a manager. For him to become that great, great manager is going to take time, but he has done a good job at Sunderland so far.

"I don't think I've changed my style at Sunderland. I've always been a direct player, but I'm always learning. The great thing is being in a team which has confidence in you and a manager who has confidence in you. Every day is a learning process and I'm glad I'm taking it on board."
