After the joy of the midweek trip and win in Spain, it is back to the league today and time for the Swans to focus on domestic football for a couple of weeks as they start a period of three games in six days.
Today's trip to Crystal Palace will be followed by the start of their defence of the Capital One Cup against Birmingham on Wednesday before they welcome Arsenal to the Liberty Stadium next Saturday in the Sky Sports Saturday night football game.
The games are coming thick and fast for the Swans since the international break - by the time the Arsenal game is over they will have played 5 times in 13 days such is the intensity of the competitions that they are involved in. Two more games will follow that in a four day period at the end of the following week meaning overall a seven game period in between international breaks - in a period where some teams will have played just three times!
However, that is not something that seems to be concerning the Swans as they prepare for the Palace game and Michu is completely focused on the immediate job in hand
"Crystal Palace will be a very different game. We can’t sleep now." he said
"We have a tough game and it’s a very important one because we only have four points in the league.
"We need to start getting up the table.
"It’s important for us to back up this result.
"We’re really happy with the win and we deserved the points. We will try to go forward and play this Âfootball in other stadiums.
"Crystal Palace are one of the rivals in our league. When they play at home, they are very strong. They beat Sunderland, so it will be difficult.”
Michu found himself on target on Thursday night in the Mestalla where the Swans were clapped off by the opposing fans such was the domination of their performance from start to finish in a win that propelled them to the top of Group A and with a big step towards qualification for the last 32.
Michu added: "It was good to be back in Spain. It was nice to play at home and get a standing ovation. I was really happy with the trip.
"I’ve scored my fourth goal of the season, but the most important thing was the three points.”
Michu is likely to feature at Selhurst Park this afternoon but as a guess he will sit out Wednesday's game at Birmingham where I think Laudrup will go with Pozuelo and Vazuez as his front two giving both Michu and Bony a bit of a rest ahead of Arsenal arriving at the Liberty.
