Sunderland boss Dick Advocaat has no problem with Lee Cattermole.

Cattermole has already conceded two penalties and was hauled off at half-time in the 2-2 draw at Aston Villa last time out that saw the winless Black Cats drop to the bottom of the Premier League.

But Advocaat says: "You will not hear any bad words about Lee from me because last season he did a really great job for this club.

"Maybe he's not in the right (team) shape particularly when he doesn't have a direct man to mark, and that's why we changed it at Villa."
