I believe everyone who is in this sector in football wants to be in England and I am just really happy and my family is proud.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am so motivated and have the hunger to show this club can do well with the boys, with the quality, with the young talents that we have.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have parts (of the team) where we are very creative, talented, parts with experience. It\u2019s a good mix.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI like attractive football when supporters are on your side \u2013 they want to come, they love to come to watch the game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s great to have this game as soon as possible. I\u2019m really looking forward to being here to meet the supporters.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Swans boss Russell Martin<\/strong>: &#8220;It\u2019s similar to Barnsley when they\u2019d just changed manager. We watched some games from his previous team. I think it\u2019s been put out there who might get the job at Hull. I don\u2019t know if he\u2019s even going to be there!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So it makes it difficult. I really feel for Grant [McCann]. He did a great job there. He had them going really strong last year and they\u2019ve picked up form recently.\u00a0 \u00a0But it\u2019s the new owners\u2019 prerogative to change things. I\u2019m pretty sure he\u2019ll get back in quickly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They\u2019re really capable. They have really good players, athletic, organised and they\u2019re hard to break down. They have real energy and a real focal point in their striker Tom Eaves. We\u2019ll be aware of that but it\u2019s a game for us to look forward to.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Swans are back in action this afternoon looking to extend their unbeaten run in the league which has produced five points from the last nine.
