What They're Saying
Sunderland manager Gus Poyet (via the club's official website): "We need to think about what we do well and what we do best to win the game and get three points because we're in a situation where putting a couple of wins into the table would make the rest of the season easier."
West Ham United manager Sam Allardyce (via London Evening Standard): "We don't want to get carried away. We just want to keep on playing the football we're playing at the moment. Everyone is enjoying themselves. There's a good buzz around the training ground, which is always a good sign.
