Jonas Gutierrez says derby defeat was worse moment of his Newcastle career

Jonas Gutierrez feels Newcastle's loss to Sunderland was the worst thing to happen to him since he arrived on Tyneside.

Gutierrez says the squad need to come together and respond, and agrees that, while beating West Brom will not instantly salve the hurt, it can help. "Sunday is done now. We can't do anything about that game anymore so now we have to focus on the last five games that we have in this season because we are in a situation that isn't easy, but it's not the worst," he said. "There are many teams fighting to take the points to make sure they are in a good position in the final league places. We have a good opportunity now against West Brom to go away and get three points because it is something we are not doing so well this year."
