Sunderland defender John O'Shea is convinced the club have made the right appointment by bringing in David Moyes to replace Sam Allardyce.

"The new manager has a fantastic pedigree and I saw a stat that he's third or fourth highest in terms of all-time Premier League wins, so we have a manager who knows how to win football matches," he told safc.com.

"I've had very tough games against his teams in the past and although he hasn't had much time with the group yet he's been getting his ideas across."
