Pascal predicts Cats success

04 Sep 2008 - 12:53:46

Defender Pascal Chimbonda is confident that new club Sunderland will have a successful season following manager Roy Keane's busy summer in the transfer market.

Chimbonda, 29 , is one of ten new faces to arrive on Wearside since the end of the last campaign and the former Spurs full-back has been impressed with the quality of his fellow new signings.

"It takes time, maybe two or three games more, before everyone will work each other out and, after that, I think we will do something," he told the club's official website.

"We don't have stars here, we have good players and a good manager so it is a good recipe. I really believe we can do well."

Meanwhile, Chimbonda has backed the Black Cats to bounce back from an indifferent start to the new season following two defeats - the latest a 3-0 home loss to Manchester City last Sunday - in their opening three games.

"Sunday's result was bad, but we didn't play badly in the first half, we should have scored. It went wrong after they scored," he continued.

"We've lost two games, but it's only the start of the season. The next game we can win and if we do people will forget the bad performance against Man City."
