Newcastle midfielder Jonas Gutierrez is determined to take his frustrations out on Sunderland as he targets derby glory next week.

The 28-year-old Argentine saw his side squander a 2-0 lead over struggling Wolves on Saturday to emerge with only a point when three were there for the taking, but the Magpies will have little time to reflect on a disappointing afternoon as they begin preparations for next Sunday's clash with the Black Cats.

Gutierrez said: "We lost two points, so we were upset about the result. But now we have to focus on the next game.

"Of course that's a game that stands out. It's something completely different compared to any other game in the Premier League.

"We know what the fans expect from this game - they don't care if you play well, just about the three points.

"We are at home, so we have to take the three points because here, we lost two, so we have to get the win next week."
