Ki backing Swansea for Euro push

Swansea City midfielder Ki Sung-Yueng is convinced they can crack Europa League qualification this season.

The Swans' stylish 2-0 win over Arsenal on Saturday moved them up to seventh in the Premier League, three points behind fifth-placed West Bromwich Albion in the Europa League qualification position.

"If we get a chance, we want to play in Europe," said the £5.5m summer signing. "The Europa League would be a dream for us. Why can't it happen?

"If we work very hard, and it's something we're trying to do, we can reach that target. Playing in the Champions League was a great experience for me.

"If you experience another type of competition you can compete with other good players.

"But it's not done now, we need to win more games, get more confidence, and we'll get better and better."
