Francesco Guidolin: 'Swansea City can play better'

Swansea City head coach Francesco Guidolin says that his side must build on their draw with Chelsea last weekend.

Swansea City head coach Francesco Guidolin has called on his players to show their "fighting spirit" against Southampton.

Last weekend, the Welsh outfit impressed during their 2-2 draw with Chelsea at the Liberty Stadium, but Guidolin wants to see improvements from his team when they take to the pitch at St Mary's on Sunday.

The 60-year-old is quoted by BBC Sport as saying: "We must be ready to fight, because in this league to fight is the most important thing.

"The quality of the players is obviously important, but fighting spirit is very important. We must improve. We know we can play better, quicker and with more confidence and aggression."

Ahead of this weekend's fixtures, Swansea sit in 13th place in the Premier League table.
