Jones still sidelined

23 August 2010 14:30
Stoke striker Kenwyne Jones will miss Tuesday's Carling Cup second-round tie at home to Shrewsbury as his ankle injury is still causing him problems. The £8million signing from Sunderland missed the weekend's defeat by Tottenham and is a doubt for Saturday's Barclays Premier match against Chelsea. Fellow forward Mamady Sidibe has undergone an operation on the Achilles tendon he ruptured against Spurs and he is now a long-term absentee. Manager Tony Pulis is likely to freshen up his starting line-up for the cup tie.
