"This club's objective at the start of a season is to be competing for the major honours at the business end and those small details are decisive in the end", the 43-year told his club's official site.

"We have as much desire to win the Premier League as we do the Champions League."

However, the former Crewe manager stressed that the focus for now is to win the match against Sunderland later today, and then move on to the Champions League semi-final tie against Atletico Madrid.

"The full focus at the moment is Sunderland and trying to put out the best team possible that we think will have success in that game, and then first thing on Sunday morning our minds are onto Atletico", Holland added.
