And it was not surprising after two beautifully crafted goals earned the Swans their first three points since the third game of the season and lifted them back into the Top 6 of the Premier League.<\/p>\n
Whilst all the headlines after last week’s game were around cheating, diving and Monk’s comments, this week’s comments are likely to not even trigger a slight eyebrow raise after he hailed the top finishing of Bony who scored both goals in his side’s 2-0 win.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m pleased with the three points,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Monk. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153We had a little bit of pressure on us to get the win, and it was never going to be an easy game.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Overall, Im very pleased with what the boys did in those circumstances against a very determined Leicester side.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153We were very clinical in taking the chances we had and scored two very well worked goals.”<\/p>\n
It was a stark contrast to recent weeks where the Swans have created plenty of chances but not taken many of them whereas against Leicester it was more a case of creating little but taking the chances that did come our way as we recorded a first win in six.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153When chances aren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t flowing, which they weren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t tonight, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s important we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re clinical – we spoke about that before the game.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153We limited them to shots from distance in the second half, which is credit to the shape we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been working on.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153All of the players are contributing well. After a harsh few weeks, they got their just rewards tonight with a clean sheet and two goals.”<\/p>\n
