Sunderland currently find themselves in a Premier League relegation battle. The Black Cats sit just outside of the bottom 3 but still needing 3 wins and a draw for manager Sam Allardyce's target of 38 points.
Striker Jermaine Defoe remains confident that Sunderland can avoid the drop with the players they have.
"I think we'll be fine. I believe from now until the end of the season we will win a few games, because of the way we're playing, and the players we've got.
"The new signings - Wahbi Khazri, Lamine Kone, all of them, and even the lads that came in during the summer like Younes Kaboul - have lifted us. Emmanuel Eboue looks like he's going to sign too, so it's a top squad on paper.."
