David Moyes turns tinkerman in a bid to find his best side at Sunderland following Southampton draw

He may be only three games into his Sunderland career but David Moyes is already emerging as something of a tinkerman.

Hampered by injuries to key figures, the 53-year-old has used 20 players already this season. Only Watford, with 21, have used more in the Premier League.

Moyes has also tried three different formations and admits a lack of personnel is preventing him from experimenting further to discover his best system.

‘I’d like to tinker but I just don’t think I’ve really got the players at the moment to make too many changes,’ said Moyes.
