Sunderland boss Poyet: Vicente? Am I bothered?!!

New Sunderland boss Gus Poyet has dismissed the claims of his former Brighton winger Vicente.

The Spaniard described Poyet as the "worst person" he'd met in football.

"It's funny that because I thought you would have asked about the other 20 who spoke well about me," he said.

"But I am not bothered because it is one of 60 I had at Brighton. If it was 20 I probably wouldn't be here to be honest.

"I am not bothered about Vicente, we tried to help him as much as we could. We treated him by putting him on the pitch as soon as we could. He didn't play a lot and that was the payback you get."
