Craig Gordon saves Steve Bruce a new signing
STEVE Bruce has shelved plans to strengthen Sunderland's goalkeeping department after hailing Craig Gordon for rediscovering the form that made him Britain's most expensive stopper.
After an injury-ravaged campaign that saw him play just 12 Premier League games for the Black Cats last season there were question marks surrounding his long-term Stadium of Light future - with Bruce going as far as drawing up a shortlist of possible replacements.
Gordon's slow recovery from a knee operation meant that it was an understandable back-up plan, but after a series of fine displays since regaining the number one jersey, Bruce's worries have been eased.
