Monk Pleased With Swans Performance

Both sides had chances to score more goals and both will have counted themselves a little unlucky not to have gained the win but at the same time both will have been equally happy to have avoided defeat.

The Swans found themselves ahead in the game twice, firstly thanks to Andre Ayew’s header which finished an excellent move and the second time when Harry Kane sliced the ball into the back of the net to put us back ahead.

Two Christian Eriksen free kicks though pegged us back twice and extended our unbeaten run at the Liberty this season to four games which is a fair position when you consider that Manchester United, Everton and Tottenham have already visited.

Swans boss Garry Monk had called on his players to give a performance this week after the disappointment of the previous games and there is little doubt that he got it and he was a happy man afterwards

รขโ‚ฌล“Iรขโ‚ฌโ„ขm pleased with the performance,รขโ‚ฌย said the Swans boss. รขโ‚ฌล“We have had a couple of performances below our standard, but we were much more like ourselves today.

รขโ‚ฌล“We wanted to get back on track, and the players were excellent today – you could see their passion and desire to win that game.

รขโ‚ฌล“Every single one of them performed well, including the substitutes that came on.

รขโ‚ฌล“Tottenham have great quality, are in good form and are a tough side to play against, but it was pleasing to see that we matched them.

รขโ‚ฌล“We just need to find that consistent level of performance, which was our biggest strength last season.รขโ‚ฌย
