And, ahead of hard games against Southampton, Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal to come, Swansea captain Cork says both players and fans will be eyeing a more consistent run of results heading into the next global break.

As per ESPN FC’s Liam Twomey, Conte said, “If you ask me if [Amat] deserved a second yellow card, I don’t want to reply about this”.
“It is hard, but he showed me and his team-mates that he has fantastic behaviour and it was not easy for him”.
“His behaviour was fantastic”.
“I think the defenders know him and sometimes they try to provoke him”.
“It is a normal situation”.
Their rules state that players and managers are allowed to criticise a referee as long as it is within reason and does not imply bias, question their integrity or make offensive and personal comments.
That appeared to be a reference to Amat.
Costa followed up his brace for Spain last Monday with another two goals at the Liberty Stadium at the weekend, the second of which helped the Blues salvage a point in a game they had dominated.
“I took the touch away from him, it’s not like he’s come from the side of me, he’s come from behind me”. That kills me and my team. “For me that is incredible”.
Conte was just as infuriated his team did not capitalise on their dominance over the first hour, urging his players to learn from their profligacy. On Terry, the manger will await the result of a scan. “He’s a warrior. I’m not anxious”.
“Yes, he could have been sent off”, said Swansea manager Francesco Guidolin. “We are disappointed because the performance was very good in terms of our intensity and because we played good football”, the Italian coach said, as quoted on BBC Sport.
“It’s the first time in my career I have done this”. “I made a mistake”.
Manager Francesco Guidolin changed tactics from a misfiring 3-5-1-1 system before halftime, withdrawing the disgruntled Welsh worldwide Neil Taylor for Gambian winger Modou Barrow.
“I thought he [Cahill] spoke really brilliantly, basically it was a foul.it was an assault”.

Willian was proving a real handful for Swansea, bursting past Neil Taylor but Fabianski showed excellent handling skills to claim the Brazilian’s cross with Costa waiting to pounce.
