Michael Laudrup admits Swansea City 'have problems'

Michael Laudrup says that Swansea City need a win soon and admits that they have "problems".

Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup has admitted that his side are going through a rough patch following their 3-1 home defeat against Tottenham Hotspur today.

The Swans are 15th in the Premier League and have lost their last three league matches.

Speaking after the Spurs defeat, Laudrup said that his players need a win as soon as possible and believes that the fixture against Fulham on Tuesday, January 28 is crucial.

"The first time they have a shot on target they score. We lost shape for 5-10 minutes. It is something that happens when you are struggling," Laudrup told BBC Sport.

"We have to admit we have some problems right now. On other hand, we have to continue like this. We need a win.

"The next four league games are against direct opponents. We play in the FA Cup next then it is a game against Fulham which is a game we want and need to win."

Swansea have won just five times in the league this season.
