Sunderland striker Victor Anichebe delighted to prove Moyes right

Sunderland striker Victor Anichebe is delighted to be proving manager David Moyes right.

Anichebe struck twice in victory over Hull City.

"Everyone knows I've got this love for the manager after coming through at Everton with him," he said.

"I always wanted to come back and play with him. I had bigger money offers to go abroad, but I'm only 28 and I didn't want to leave the Premier League.

"I tried to turn a bad time into a good time and I always knew the belief David has in me."
