Planet Swans ArchivesAnd it was not surprising after two beautifully crafted goals earned the Swans their first three points since the third game of the season and lifted them back into the Top 6 of the Premier League.
Whilst all the headlines after last week’s game were around cheating, diving and Monk’s comments, this week’s comments are likely to not even trigger a slight eyebrow raise after he hailed the top finishing of Bony who scored both goals in his side’s 2-0 win.
รขโฌลIรขโฌโขm pleased with the three points,รขโฌย said Monk. รขโฌลWe had a little bit of pressure on us to get the win, and it was never going to be an easy game.
รขโฌลOverall, Im very pleased with what the boys did in those circumstances against a very determined Leicester side.
รขโฌลWe were very clinical in taking the chances we had and scored two very well worked goals.”
It was a stark contrast to recent weeks where the Swans have created plenty of chances but not taken many of them whereas against Leicester it was more a case of creating little but taking the chances that did come our way as we recorded a first win in six.
รขโฌลWhen chances arenรขโฌโขt flowing, which they werenรขโฌโขt tonight, itรขโฌโขs important weรขโฌโขre clinical – we spoke about that before the game.
รขโฌลWe limited them to shots from distance in the second half, which is credit to the shape weรขโฌโขve been working on.
รขโฌลAll of the players are contributing well. After a harsh few weeks, they got their just rewards tonight with a clean sheet and two goals.”
