Sunderland boss David Moyes: Now let's go on a run

Sunderland boss David Moyes hopes they can go on a winning run after their 4-0 victory at Crystal Palace.

The victory was their first of 2017, and came after their squad was strengthened during the transfer window and after the returns of players at the African Nations Cup, and he said: "To be 4-0 up at half-time...I'm actually trying to think if I've been in that situation too often.

"If you are getting beaten all the time, it affects you no matter who you are. So it's good when you win,

"We had a great run in the first half of the season when we won three games out of four, and it gave us a real lift. We need to do something similar in the second half.

"I hope this could be the start, following on from that great point against Tottenham. We have to find a couple of those runs for us to be good enough to be a Premier League team."
