Gordon to see specialist over knee problem

Sunderland goalkeeper Craig Gordon is to visit a specialist in Sweden next week over his troublesome knee injury. The £9million man has struggled since returning early from Scotland duty last month with the problem, and was an unused substitute for last weekend's 2-0 Barclays Premier League defeat at Everton as Simon Mignolet took over. Manager Steve Bruce said today: "Craig Gordon is not 100% fit, I have to report that. He's going to see a specialist on Monday. "He came back from Scotland with a knee injury and it has been niggling away at him. He's away to see a specialist in Sweden on Monday and we will see how he is."
