Rallying cry to Sunderland players from new boss Poyet

New Sunderland boss Gus Poyet has ordered his players to begin winning this weekend at Swansea to kick-start their season. Poyet told the Sunderland Echo: "It's a big contrast. We have a few problems. We have changed a manager and we have got a new group of players.

"But at 3pm, it's 11 v 11, one referee, two linesmen. It's about what you do in those two hours.

"It doesn't matter what's happened before. Swansea are in a better balanced position, yes they are, it's true. But that doesn't mean that they are going to win.

"We will go there to win. We need to win football games. We cannot go to places looking to get just one point."
