ONeill plans Sunderland rescue mission

O'Neill plans Sunderland rescue mission

05 December 2011 - 04:53

Martin O'Neill is planning the latest chapter of his managerial career - with probably one of his biggest challenges yet - taking over the Sunderland hotseat with the Black Cats in a precarious league position.

  • Fabrizio Romano updates on Nicolas Jackson's future at Chelsea
  • Arsenal suffer big injury blow ahead of Fulham game
  • "It's a nice feeling to be back in football and obviously I'm very excited about joining Sunderland. It's a big moment and I'm hoping it works out well," said O'Neill.<br />

    "Naturally, I want to do well for the fans, the team and myself. If we can combine all this and start winning football matches, it would be terrific."<br />

    O'Neill watched on as Sunderland slumped to a 2-1 defeat to Wolves at the weekend, with the Northern Irishman no doubt planning how he could reverse his club's fortunes.
