Sunderland manager David Moyes believes that stopping the threat of Romelu Lukaku will be key if his team are to gain points from his teams match against the Toffees on Saturday.
Moyes spent 11 years with the Merseyside club and returns to Goodison Park for the second time. The first was during his unsuccessful 10 month stint with Manchester United.
Lukaku has been on top form this season and boasts 22 goals in 29 games in all competitions for club and country this season. He is expected to start Saturday’s fixture.
“I have incredible memories of Everton but I also go back knowing I had a great chairman and great people around me,” said Moyes.”It was the rebuilding of a football club and we went on to qualify for the Champions League with a very limited budget.”
Sunderland are back in action after a team bonding trip in New York. They will need to get as many points as possible between now and the end of the season if they wish to survive relegation.
