Injury worries mount for O'Neill

Sunderland boss Martin O’Neill faces a series of selection problems ahead of Sunday’s FA Cup third round trip to Peterborough.

O'Neill is keeping his cards close to his chest as he awaits news on defenders Wes Brown (groin), Titus Bramble (Achilles/calf) and Phil Bardsley (thigh), midfielder Jack Colback (ankle), who has filled in at left-back in recent weeks, and striker Connor Wickham (knee).
