Sunderland boss Gus Poyet admits his squad is short of depth.
Poyet is desperate to get new signings through the door in the next fortnight.
"I know we need a few. Not one but a few. You pick a number.
"There are areas in the team where we are still missing players for sure. I can assure they will come. How many, it is impossible to say."
