Garry Monk: 'Swansea City must adapt to striker Bafetimbi Gomis'

Swansea City manager Garry Monk says that the team must change their style as they get used to striker Bafetimbi Gomis.

Swansea City manager Garry Monk has said that his side must adapt their style of play to suit striker Bafetimbi Gomis.

Gomis is set to become the club's number one striker as Wilfried Bony's move to Manchester City nears completion, and Monk has said that the Frenchman has different attributes to the outgoing Bony.

He told reporters: "I've got 100% faith in Bafe and I think you saw from his performance (against West Ham United), he was pushing the team and trying to get his goals.

"Bony uses his strength to his advantage and is a different type of striker, and I think the more game time for Bafe he gets, the more used the team will get when we're playing him."

Gomis has scored four goals for the club this season.
