The Swansea City manager said after the game We have put ourselves in a great position and I’m confident a good performance at home will see us through<\/p>\n
“I don’t mean any arrogance saying that but we have been strong at home this season and the 20,000 fans we will have packed to the rafters will sound like 50,000.<\/p>\n
“You could sense they were disappointed and frustrated but Forest have been scoring goals for fun and they won their last away game 3-0, so we know it’s not going to be easy.<\/p>\n
“We are delighted with the way we played but it counts for nothing if we don’t perform on Monday.<\/p>\n
“Neil’s in shock but he’s apologised to the rest of the lads in there<\/p>\n
“I can see why he (Dean) has given it. Neil has gone in stretching and even though he’s not made total contact with McGugan he’s caught him.<\/p>\n
“The emotion of the game and the crowd can influence the referee but I thought Mike Dean was excellent.<\/p>\n
“Neil has to learn from that and move on.<\/p>\n
“I’m very proud of the team because I knew it was going to be an emotional game, but to lose a man after 50 seconds is incredible.<\/p>\n
“We had to sacrifice some of the things we do but Scott Sinclair and Nathan Dyer were terrific.<\/p>\n
“I felt for Stephen Dobbie because we had to reshuffle but we kept to 4-2-3 and were dangerous on the counter attack.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
