At Sunderland

Arnott was a talented midfielder with excellent vision and ball control, who came to prominence during Sunderland's First Division campaign in the 1976–77 season. He was one of a trio of young players to emerge that season, along with Gary Rowell and Shaun Elliott and remained a key player for several years, helping the team to promotion in 1980. [ 2 ] With the arrival of new manager Alan Durban however, Arnott fell out of favour and was loaned to Blackburn Rovers for a spell in 1981 before being placed on the transfer list valued at £350,000.
