Wyke determined to make amends
Charlie Wyke has admitted Sunderland must address what’s gone wrong in recent weeks and ensure they are ready to go in next Saturday’s first-leg play-off semi-final against Portsmouth.
The Black Cats rounded off their Sky Bet League One campaign with two defeats at Fleetwood Town and Southend United to see them slip to fifth.
That’s resulted in Jack Ross’ side facing Portsmouth at the Stadium of Light next Saturday before travelling to the south coast on Thursday 16 May to see who progresses to the Wembley final at the end of the month.
Speaking to safc.com, Wyke voiced his disappointment and insisted improvements must be made if the lads are to taste success this season.
“We have let a lot of people down including ourselves and we have just got to work hard now to fix it for the next game,” he said.
“All we can do now is prepare for Portsmouth, address it on Monday and see where we go from there.
“We know what we need to do now,” he continued. “We have to win three games to have success.
“It’s up to us to go and do that and we’ll work hard over the coming days to make sure we get a good start on Saturday.”
