Keane spoilt for choice in attacking options

SUNDERLAND boss Roy Keane admitted he is rapidly approaching the point where he will have to disappoint one of his multi-million pound strikers.

Injuries and suspensions so far this season have spared the manager from having to make major decisions over which of his expensively-assembled group of frontman he will have to tell their services are not required on any given matchday.

However, with Kenwyne Jones having resumed light training following his knee injury and Michael Chopra now back in harness after serving a three-match ban, summer arrivals Djibril Cisse and El-Hadji Diouf face even more competition for their places.
