Whatever else Jermain Defoe achieves in his return to English football, he has found a way to get Gus Poyet smiling again. It's barely been a week since Sunderland's Uruguayan manager had a good moan about results and performances that he even he found ugly. What a difference a few days can make. What a difference this particular striker can make. His second goal in three Premier League fixtures wasn't enough to win this one - Ki Sung-Yeung saw to that against with an equaliser against the side he inspired on loan last season - but it has given his manager cause to think of brighter times.
