Sunderland boss Keane following Moyes example

Sunderland boss Roy Keane admits Everton rival Dave Moyes is a big inspiration ahead of today's match.

"David Moyes gives us all a bit of hope in terms of the way he's built that squad," Keane said. "You look at them maybe two or three years ago. I think they were very much in a relegation dogfight one season.

"But he's built over the last year or two with really good signings.

"I watched them last week against Portsmouth and, on top of the quality they've got, I think they work as hard as any team in the Premier League.

"When you've got that formula, trust me, you've got a hell of a chance of being a successful team."
