Sunderland boss Tony Mowbray explains the difference Liam Rosenior has made at Hull City

Tony Mowbray says new Hull City boss Liam Rosenior has already made an impact at the MKM Stadium as the pair prepare to go head-to-head in the dugout tomorrow. Rosenior was appointed head coach at Hull at the beginning of November, after a poor start to the season led to Shota Arveladze's sacking at the end of September.

And while the former Derby County assistant manager has won just one of his first four games in charge, Sunderland boss Mowbray has dug into the data in his preparations this week and that has revealed the underlying improvement Rosenior has made. "We've tried to show the players the problems and the issues that Hull City wil give us.," said Mowbray.

"They've got a new manager, he is starting to make an impact on their team - I think Liam is a very bright coach, having come up against him when he was working with Wayne [Rooney] at Derby - they are a football team that are going to try and use the ball and give you some problems. We have to be ready for it and we have been preparing for them, and hopefully we can give them some problems as well.
