Leon Britton was a happy man as he put pen to paper on a new three year contract at the Liberty Stadium<\/p>\n
“I’m delighted I’ve signed for another three years,” said Britton to the Evening Post. “It was a case of coming back and proving myself all over again to the fans, the management and the players.<\/p>\n
“When I came back I remember meeting with the manager and saying ‘I just want to come back’. I didn’t really care what wage I was on.<\/p>\n
“I made the mistake of moving before and I’m not going to make that mistake again.<\/p>\n
“I loved being at the club previously but me going to Sheffield United made me realise even more what I had at Swansea,” he added.<\/p>\n
“I might have taken it for granted, especially when you’ve been here for so long. When I came back I did appreciate it a bit more.<\/p>\n
“Players are always going to get attention and touted about because we’ve been doing well.<\/p>\n
“I think the players understand that we’ve got something very good going on here.<\/p>\n
“The players know from me leaving and coming back here. I told them tales about how things were and I didn’t enjoy it, so the players know, but everyone’s got to make their own decisions in life.<\/p>\n
“I think a lot of people are happy here. They can see what we’ve got — the environment, the team spirit, the way we play football. The whole package is brilliant.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
