Swansea midfielder Ki Sung-yeung urges Sunderland fans to back Poyet

Swansea City midfielder Ki Sung-yeung is full of praise for Sunderland boss Gus Poyet.

Ki enjoyed a successful loan spell under the Uruguayan last season.

"Sunderland fans need to be patient because it will all be worth it in the end," he said.

"When Gus came in he tried to build a team with a passing game. Last year sometimes it worked and sometimes not.

"The players have to keep listening to what Gus has to say. Don't forget Swansea have had this style a long time now and it doesn't happen straight away. It takes time to get it right."
