�The team�s performance was good, it was not great but there were some good signs. After all we�ve just had three tough games in Germany, but we played quite well. In pre-season it�s not about the winning but the way the team play,� he added
The striker who was rumoured be leave the Stadium of Light says he is looking forward to working with the club�s new signings.
�Sometimes it can be difficult when new players arrive, but we�ll work together and I�m looking forward to playing alongside them next season.�
