Garry Monk: 'Swansea City have to take belief from Napoli tie'

Garry Monk insists that his players must take belief from their performances against Napoli into their remaining Premier League fixtures.

Swansea City manager Garry Monk has insisted that his players must take belief from their Europa League tie with Napoli into their remaining Premier League games.

The Swans face Crystal Palace tomorrow on the back of two good performances in Europe.

Monk also revealed that he is taking one game at a time and not setting a points target for his side.

"All I have thought about since coming in is winning this game," Monk told Wales Online.

"Mathematically people say 40 points will mean you are safe, and that is true, but I don't look at it like that. It's just about the next game and we have got to put our effort into beating Crystal Palace.

"If the players can't take belief from the games we've had against Napoli, I don't know where they will get it from. They have been fantastic, now we have to keep the momentum going."

Swansea welcome Palace at 4.30pm tomorrow afternoon.
