Gordon keen to make Bridge debut
Sunderland goalkeeper Craig Gordon is desperate to make up for lost time as he heads for Chelsea for the first time.
Britain's most expensive goalkeeper has spent far too long on the sidelines for his own liking since he made his £9million switch from Hearts to Wearside in August 2007.
Gordon has started just 80 of Sunderland's 141 games since joining the Black Cats, and had to wait until Tuesday night at Tottenham for his first appearance of the season. But having regained his place, he is determined to rediscover the form which so impressed manager Steve Bruce at the end of last season.
Gordon said: "It's not really that easy. I would like to get a run of games before I could say I was back at that standard.
"I had a good game on Tuesday night, I was happy with that for a first game back. It was always going to be a big test and I am glad to get through it and move on to the next one.
"Six months without a competitive game at this level is a long time. To come back in and have a few saves to make, it was nice to get straight back into the swing of things."
