The Swansea City midfielder is pleased to see the way the Swans have bounced back with wins and clean sheets that have lifted them into the automatic promotion spaces
But with plenty left to come – including home games with Cardiff, Leeds and Norwich – Allen knows that momentum is as important to the Swans going forward.
“It is very important to keep momentum going at home,” Joe told BBC Sport.
“And another clean sheet at home was very important.
“Over Christmas there were games where we didn’t look our best and we’ve bounced back with victories and more importantly clean sheets.
“It is crucial we maintain that momentum.”
