Gower has yet to notch a Swansea City goal following his summer move from Southend but it is not for the want of trying as the woodwork has denied him several times to date.<\/p>\n
But with Ferrie Bodde and Jordi Gomez – the Swans two leading scorers – missing Jones believes that this could be the moment that Swans fans have waited for with Gower ready to take the limelight.<\/p>\n
\u201cSwansea are my team \u2013 I am a Swansea Jack.” he told Wales on Sunday<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd for whatever I achieved in my career after leaving, I will always look back on my days at the Vetch with pride and affection.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo when you hear so many people from all over the country talk about the job Roberto is doing down there it is a wonderful thing.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd, being a Swansea boy, I know how much it will mean to everyone connected with the club to get one over on Cardiff. When I was at the club Cardiff tended to be above us, but the few derbies I played in were always hard affairs.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut they have their chance now and they know all those whose heart is at Swansea and the Vetch are behind them.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Vetch was a fantastic ground with a great atmosphere and hopefully it will be the same at the Liberty for this one.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere will be goals but I certainly think Swansea have what it takes to win it, so I\u2019m going for a 3-2 win.<\/p>\n
\u201cI like (Mark) Gower and he is due a goal, so I think he could be the one that becomes an instant Swansea legend.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s an old Spurs boy like me who plays on the wing \u2013 like I used to \u2013 so I\u2019d love to see him get the winner. But I don\u2019t mind who scores, as long as it is Swansea who get the win!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
