Leon Britton: 'The Swansea City fans are behind Garry Monk'

Leon Britton believes that the Swansea City fans support current head coach Garry Monk after he replaced Michael Laudrup following the Dane's sacking earlier this month.

Swansea City midfielder Leon Britton believes that the club's supporters are fully behind head coach Garry Monk following Michael Laudrup's dismissal.

Monk, who has been at the club as a player for 10 years, has recorded a win, draw and defeat since taking over earlier this month at the Liberty Stadium.

"He's been here as a leader on the pitch for years and now he's the leader off it so it has felt like a natural transition for him," Britton told the club's official website.

"He has a great understanding of the game and we've seen that with his tactical analysis already. The board and players know him well, he's well respected and I think the fans have really got behind him too."

The Swans are due to take on Napoli in their Europa League encounter on home turf this Thursday.
