Robin Roefs says Sunderland's strong start to the Premier League campaign is built on team spirit and togetherness after another standout display at Selhurst Park.

The Dutch goalkeeper was once again at the heart of Sunderland's resistance in a goalless draw against Crystal Palace, producing a string of fine saves to help secure a second clean sheet of the season.

"From the start we knew what we are capable of," Roefs said.

"We really fight as a team, we are really happy with our start and it is up to us to continue this. We are not just a team who wants to defend, we have some players who are really good with the ball. We showed we are really good fighting for each other."
