Sunderland boss Roy Keane believes they're capable of competing for Europe this season - if they can avoid the drop.
"We knew this year was a big year for the club going back over a long, long time.
"We know if we can stabilise this year, we know this club and the potential is there for everyone to see that we can go on to better things.
"You look at our crowd against West Ham the other week - 45,000 for a team struggling near the bottom. Can you imagine if we can get higher up the table?
"I do believe if we can stabilise this year and stay in the Premier League, we can challenge the teams just ahead of us, the West Hams and the Blackburns.
"That's where we want to be over the next year or two."
