The Swansea City midfielder has found himself in a central role in recent games with Nathan Dyer, Tom Butler and Cedric Van Der Gun all being used in the wide positions.<\/p>\n
And to cap that with his first competitive goal for the Swans and you have a very happy midfielder on your hands at this current moment in time.<\/p>\n
Gower told the Western Mail \u201cIf you\u2019re playing you\u2019ve got to be happy and I don\u2019t care if I play right-back<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m delighted to be in the team, but I get a lot more of the ball in that position.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019ve got to have greater discipline because you\u2019ve got to track runners and there\u2019s a lot more positional play.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can never switch off and it\u2019s a bit more difficult in that sense.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I love it because I feel a lot more involved in the game and can get on the ball more.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s a good mixture in there with the way Leon (Britton) breaks it up and the energy of Prats (Darren Pratley).<\/p>\n
\u201cI like to think I complement them with my quality on the ball, find some passes and link the play up.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re dominating games possession-wise and it\u2019s working well at the moment.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel a lot more confident,\u201d he said. \u201cThe goal was a long time coming but I can move on now.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt would be nice to get a few more, but I feel my form has come together in the last few weeks and I\u2019m playing the way I should. The goal has helped my confidence and I feel I can push on from there.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s the old cliche, but once you get one or two goals in I think we\u2019ll score a few more,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve got enough in the tank to know the goals will come, we\u2019ve got players who can score and we look dangerous from set-pieces, so I think the system does work.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe only thing wrong with the actual performance on Saturday is that there wasn\u2019t a goal at the end of it.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe played some good stuff and kept knocking on the door but it didn\u2019t just happen for us.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know if we were hesitant in front of goal but if you are defenders pounce on you at this level.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re little more than one win away from the play-offs so there\u2019s everything to play for,\u201d said Gower, explaining confidence is high in the Swans camp after an eight-game unbeaten run.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a division where anyone can beat anyone, so if you go eight games without losing you are doing something right.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve improved from early on in the campaign when we were leaking goals and losing points.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow we\u2019re disappointed when we don\u2019t win games so we\u2019re going in the right direction.<\/p>\n
\u201cEvery team is built from a good defence and we\u2019ve conceded the least amount of goals in the division.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe boys at the back have been terrific, hopefully we can get a few goals and it will snowball from there.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
