Sunderland boss Poyet hoping to beat Arsenal

Sunderland boss Gus Poyet is backing his side to forget their 8-0 defeat to Southampton by beating Arsenal this Saturday.

Poyet admits it took him and his squad several days to overcome the defeat to Southampton last weekend, but he feels that they will bounce back against Arsenal in the Premier League this Saturday.

“I want 45,000 people behind me and I know they are going to be there and they will support the team if they see what we are all expecting – which is a proper reaction,” the Uruguayan told reporters.

“As soon as you do a few things right, you put your effort in with a shot, a goal, a tackle or even a corner, it’s going to bring the stadium alive and make you feel a proper football player again.

“So I would prefer to play at home and against one of the biggest teams you can have.”
