Sunderland's beleaguered manager David Moyes is expecting to be given more time to turn round their struggling form.
David Moyes is confident he retains the support of Sunderland owner Ellis Short despite his team's woeful run of form.
The Wearsiders have made the worst start to a season in Premier League history and are firmly rooted to the foot of the table having claimed just two points from their opening 10 games.
Reports this week have suggested Moyes, who took charge in July, will be axed should Sunderland lose again at Bournemouth on Saturday, but the former Manchester United boss is confident he will be given more time at the Stadium of Light.
