Kenwyne Jones: I Won't Walk, Its Just Talk


Kenwyne Jones admits all the talk of a January move to Liverpool upset his form but insists he wants to stay at Sunderland.

No approach was made by Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez but Jones says he was distracted by the transfer talk until boss Steve Bruce gave him a talking to.

“Mr. Bruce spoke to me and reassured me that the club still wanted me,” said Jones. “That is always nice to hear. Sometimes a big transfer story can make it hard for the manager to say anything.

“I never gave any indication that I wanted to leave or I was unhappy. There was a lot of stuff being said by whoever and you can’t stop that. But I didn’t have any part to play in that whole situation.

“If one of the world’s big clubs come in for you it’s understandable you might have the desire to go to that next level. Until you sign a contract with a new club it’s all just talk. January was a crazy time and now I will focus on our next games.”
