Sunderland keeper Craig Gordon insists he has no problem with Jermain Defoe.

The Black Cats shotstopper was sidelined for three months with a broken arm following a 50-50 challenge with Jermain Defoe in the fixture at White Hart Lane in November.

Gordon told the Sunderland Echo: “It’s happened, but it’s in the past.

“There are no hard feelings there between us and I would shake his hand. No problem.

“It’s one of those things that sometimes happens in football.

“Not much was made of it at the time and that’s a good thing; I certainly won’t be making anything of it in the build-up to this game.”
