Norwich boss David Wagner's message to Sunderland ahead of this weekend's Carrow Road trip

Norwich City boss David Wagner expects Sunderland to have 'the hunger' to make amends for their Stoke City thrashing when they arrive at Carrow Road this weekend - but insists he does not care. The Black Cats head to Norfolk on Sunday still smarting from their 5-1 defeat at the hands of the Potters, which was their third reverse in a row.

Canaries chief Wagner knows Tony Mowbray's side will be desperate to put that result behind them and get back on course after dropping out of the play-off places, however he says that is something he cannot influence and therefore is irrelevant to him. "When you get beaten you have the hunger to correct it," said Wagner, whose side won 3-2 at Millwall last weekend to make it three wins in a row and move up to sixth place.

"Whether Sunderland had won, lost or drawn I can't influence it. This means I don't care, I'm focused on us and we have to make sure whatever their recent result was that we play to our best and that we have the greatest support possible on Sunday to be successful again.
