Midfielder Brunt, 26, has struggled to reproduce his performances of previous seasons. But Downing, recently promoted to replace Michael Appleton as Roy Hodgson's number two, believes he will overcome his sticky spell. He said: "Chris is missing that ingredient that can unlock a door (opposing defences) at the moment. "He is a creative player and has the ability to do that at any time during a game plus a great set piece delivery. "We have no worries about Chris and he is an honest guy, he realises his standards, and will work hard to try and improve them."
