Sunderland midfielder Alfred N'Diaye has revealed the players are enjoying working under new boss Paolo Di Canio and highlighted his different approach than that of Martin O'Neill.

The Chelsea defeat means Sunderland find themselves just above the drop zone on goal difference and N'Diaye admits they need to start winning games with two tricky contests against Newcastle and Everton next up for Di Canio's troops. "Now we don't have a choice. We need to win games, against Newcastle and the next home game against Everton," continued N'Diaye. "Every time we think we play well and fight, it doesn't matter. We need points. "We've not won a game in two months and that's not good. It's not normal. "Everybody was disappointed because as a minimum, we wanted a draw from the game yesterday. We thought we could get that."
