The Swansea City manager has seen his side pick up just 1 point from the last 9 available. That has cost his side their second place position in the table and many are now pointing to today's game against fellow top 6 side Nottingham Forest as a must win game.<\/p>\n
Rodgers told the Western Mail "This is a game that will hopefully refocus our drive to move forward <\/p>\n
“This is my 35th week at Swansea and we’ve had one bad week in terms of results. So the players deserve a massive amount of credit and I can’t be too hard on them because they have been magnificent.<\/p>\n
“The performance level against Scunthorpe was okay, but we didn’t get the result.<\/p>\n
“We played well against Watford, but they had won three out of four and it wasn’t a bad slip from us. And we were disappointed with Derby.<\/p>\n
“It’s a big game and we’ve got big characters. I expect us to go in with all guns blazing. We’ve shown more times than enough we can get results in that league.<\/p>\n
“We’ve seen over the years in this league and in the top league, money doesn’t buy you everything,” said Swans boss Rodgers about the financial gulf between the two sides.<\/p>\n
“I’ve got a wonderful group of players here who are motivated and hungry to do well.<\/p>\n
“When you mix that with how we work every day it’s great.<\/p>\n
“These players never have a lazy day, they always want to improve and get better.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
