Sunderland boss Roy Keane expects the return of striker Kenwyne Jones to lift his players.

"Aside from his goals, the number of assists he contributed last season was also a big plus," he said. "I think our other strikers will see the benefits of having Kenwyne back - Michael Chopra, Djibril Cisse, Daryl Murphy and Dave Healy.

"Kenwyne is a handful for any defender. I know John Terry said last year when we played against Chelsea that Kenwyne was the toughest centre-forward he had come up against.

"I know exactly what he means!"
