Rangel hopeful Swansea skipper Williams back after break

Swansea City defender Angel Rangel is hoping that captain Ashley Williams returns to full fitness after the international break. The Swans recent form has dipped following Williams' ankle injury with the South Wales outfit losing three of the four games he has missed.

"Ash is an important player for us. He has been a consistent and regular player for us week in, week out," he told the South Wales Evening Post.

"He will be fit when we come back. How many Premier League games did he play in a row without a rest?

"Ash has not had many injuries. Hopefully he will get back to full fitness, get back in the team and help us."
