Sunderland manager David Moyes has admitted that his team do not have adequate quality to compete with high-flying teams like Everton in the Premier League. This came after the Black Cats’ 2-0 defeat at the hands of the Toffee’s at Goodison Park.
Idrissa Gueye and Romelu Lukaku scored the goals which rounded up an unhappy return to Goodison Park for Moyes.
Sunderland were unlucky to have not equalized when veteran striker Jermain Defoe hit the crossbar when the score was 1-0, however Moyes did admit that Everton were the superior team on the day.
He told reporters, “There is a gulf in quality, but the players are giving everything they’ve got. If we’re getting let down anywhere, we don’t quite have the quality.
“I was disappointed we lost the first goal. We tried to frustrate the supporters. I didn’t want us to concede again in the second half.”
