Dick Advocaat: 'Sunderland will only improve this season'

Dick Advocaat claims that Sunderland will "only improve" after losing their opening two matches of the season.

Sunderland boss Dick Advocaat has vowed that his side will "only improve" following their poor start to the season.

The Black Cats are currently at the bottom of the Premier League table after suffering two defeats from their opening two games of the campaign.

The Wearsiders have the chance to get their first points on the board tomorrow when they welcome Swansea City to the Stadium of Light.

"One thing that I can say, which is 100%, is we will become a better team," Advocaat is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News. "There is no doubt about that.

"Maybe we need a little more time than others, but you will see that we can only improve. Some teams maybe are already at the top, but we are not."

Sunderland and Swansea played out two draws in the Premier League last season.
