Sunderland comprehensively lost to Hearts in Craig Gordon's testimonial up at Hearts. While our games in the Algarve came with a number of positives, there weren't many to take from this 90 minutes! Here's what's on the agenda today.

• We were terribly sloppy at the back – how much of a worry is that with the season three weeks away?
• Dan Neil started... did he do anything to stake a claim for a starting place?
• How concerning is our lack of goal threat?
• Is Niall Huggins doing enough to stake a claim? And where was Reinaldo?
• Hearts are already in competitive action, and their robust performance underlined that. Is it a mitigating factor?
