Sunderland Coach Talks Up Asamoah Gyan-Sessegnon Partnership
Sunderland boss Steve Bruce is confident Asamoah Gyan and Stephane Sessegnon can form a formidable partnership next season.
Bruce is planning to use a 4-4-1-1 system next season, with Benin international Sessegnon playing in a second striker role behind the bigger Gyan.
The Sunderland boss hopes Sessengnon can establish himself as a key player during the coming campaign after impressing in pre-season.
He told the Chronicle: �Sess has come back and he�s in good shape which gives us hope.
�We�ll look to keep him there because I always think that�s his best position.
�There are not many teams now, who play two out-and-out strikers. One�s always off in the midfield area.
�It suits Sess and it suits the team and I�m very pleased with what I�ve seen of him.�
