Lee Johnson has looked to ahead to Saturdayâs Sky Bet League One meeting with Gillingham, insisting Sunderland will have to be âon top formâ to secure the three points.
Victory at the weekend could lift the Lads back into the top six after a long absence, and would be our third on the bounce after overcoming Shrewsbury Town and Ipswich Town.
âWe know enough about Gillingham to know this is a very difficult game, and we have to be on top form to get the result,â Johnson stated.
âYou always look at the managers. Steve Evans is a very successful one at this level. His teams are always combative and competitive, and we have to earn the right [to win] â theyâre in good form, won convincingly in midweek, and they pressed extremely high â a slight tweak to their gameplan.
