Laudrup demands Swansea players stay switched-on

Swansea City boss Michael Laudrup doesn't want their season to tail off.

Laudrup has challenged his players to secure an eighth place finish, and top what he considers to be the second-tier of the top flight.

He said: "We are top of the table in the other league in this division, and for teams like us and West Brom to compete and go into the top 10 would be fantastic.

"There are still 10 games to go and we have to play the top five teams and teams battling to avoid relegation.

"West Brom also still have an ambition of maybe getting into Europe. They have done great this season.

"But if teams like us finish higher than eighth, then one of the other seven need to have had a bad season."
