Swansea City boss Garry Monk was pleased with their 1-0 win at Southampton.
Swansea managed to frustrate the hosts, with a resolute defence and dollop of luck allowing them to eke out a 1-0 win, courtesy of Jonjo Shelvey's fine, late strike.
"I am happy with the three points after what has been a difficult month for us for various reasons," Monk said. "We have lost players, had injuries, players away on international duty and suspensions.
"It has been difficult for us but I talked in the week about getting back to basics.
"We came here with a game plan and I thought we executed that game plan very well.
"And what a goal - a fantastic strike from Jonjo which deserved to win any game.
"I thought we were good for the three points, especially in the second half.
"We came to frustrate them a little bit and in the second half we knew that if we used the ball a little better we'd get our chances and so it proved."
