Former Sunderland boss Gus Poyet says he'll use Greece's Euro 2004 win as inspiration as he looks to guide the national team back to the finals of an international tournament for the first time in eight years. The former Black Cats boss, who was linked with a sensational return to the club prior to Lee Johnson's appointment, has been speaking about his time on Wearside and comparing life as Greece boss.
The Uruguayan took over earlier this year and Greece have since won all four of their nations league fixtures. The national team won't be at the World Cup in Qatar later this year and the 54-year-old is the man tasked with taking the club to Euro 2024.
When asked about his time in England, Poyet told FourFourTwo: "I try to look at the positives. I know there are always negatives. When I left Sunderland in March 2015, my idea was to go abroad to see something different.
