Sunderland have still managed to win just once in the Championship so far this season.

Simon Grayson has told the Sunderland Echo that he has heard that the mood in Sunderland training is better than it has been for years.

Sunderland have been in abject form so far this season, and currently sit in the relegation zone in the Championship.

The Black Cats have won just one game all season, and there are fears that they could suffer back-to-back relegations.

However, Grayson insists that Sunderland’s players are all still positive about the future.

And that gives the Black Cats’ boss confidence that their results will improve soon.

“If the players are moping around and disagreeing with everything then you know you’ve got a tough job, but that isn’t the vibe around this training ground,” he said.

“Somebody said to me the other day it’s the best vibe they’ve seen in years. That’s a reflection of the players and why I think, ultimately, it will turn around.”

Grayson will be hoping that things get better sooner rather than later, otherwise the pressure on him will only continue to increase.

Sunderland are in danger of being cut adrift in the relegation zone, unless they can start picking up three points with regularity.

Sunderland are next in action at the weekend, when they take on Brentford at Griffin Park.
