Bruce keen to end drop woes
31 Jul 2009 - 09:29:34
Sunderland's new manager Steve Bruce has set his sights on avoiding another relegation fight at the Stadium of Light this season.
The 48-year-old former Wigan Athletic boss has brought in Manchester United striker Fraizer Campbell and Marseille midfielder Lorik Cana to bolster his squad, with the target to ensure Premier League progress.
Bruce told the Sunderland Echo: "The club stayed up with the very last kick of last season practically, so of course we have got to improve on that. We don't want to be in that situation.
"It's very difficult and it takes time, but that's our aim.
"Our aim is to try to establish ourselves and not be perennially at the bottom of the Premier League or in the bottom four. We want to try to avoid that if we can."
