Dick Advocaat says he won't walk away from Sunderland.
Despite Sunderland's difficult start to the campaign in the league Advocaat has reaffirmed his commitment to the club ahead of Saturday's trip to Aston Villa.
"I have never said I would quit this club because there is no reason to," he said.
"With all respect I have never said I would leave. Maybe my face is not always happy but there was always a reason for that."
