Larsson happy with central role at Sunderland

Sebastian Larsson is happy with his central role for Sunderland.

Larsson impressed in the middle during the draw at Swansea and says he's more than happy to remain in the centre.

"I've really enjoyed it there," he told the Sunderland Echo. "All three games so far I've featured there, the two Barclays Premier League games and in the cup.

"It just takes a bit of getting used to. I played there a lot when I was younger.

"But it's a position that I will hopefully play a lot more. I think it can be fun.

"There's a bit to learn about positioning and when to hold it a bit more rather than going forward.

"I'd like to see myself as being able to dictate the play rather than bombing on all the time."
