Kenwyne Jones to save Keano's bacon...
Rookie Sunderland manager and Reds legend Roy Keane eventually went on to spend an eye-watering
£32m in the summer transfer window and until he pinched Trinidadian star Kenwyne Jones from
Southampton, it looked for all the world that the Black Cats were going to be pretty much down
among the Premier League dead-men as the season went on.
You wouldn't normally use the term 'pinched' given that Keane had spent £6m on a striker from the
Championship, but the impact Jones has made in short order has been nothing short of spectacular
and comparisons with Didier Drogba are now being made.
