| Squad sheets: Sunderland v Everton Confidence could well be in short supply with Sunderland having managed just one win in their last nine league games and Everton one in 11. "I'm worried, we're at the wrong end of the table," says David Moyes, the visiting manager, whose injury ravaged side are two points above the relegation zone. Steve Bruce remains slightly brighter. "We're making progress," says Sunderland's manager. Ellis Short, the club's billionaire owner has stayed quietly supportive but will now be seeking clear evidence of an upturn.
