Michael Laudrup admits the pressure is on Swansea City to beat Crawley Town

Speaking to the media today the Swans manager said:

"This is a chance for us to taste the winning feeling again,"

"We want to get that feeling back because you go from everything being perfect after winning two games — and also getting a draw where we played very well — to suddenly losing two games."

"You have to be careful this does not extend."

"We don't want to lose three games because then it's four games since we won the last time."

"Football turns quickly and that's why we need to get back on the winning track as soon as possible."

"I want to win but it's true that we have players who have already been out that came back last Saturday like Ashley and Jonathan,"

"These players probably won't play on tonight."

"Dyer is banned, it is the last game of Chico's ban and Kemy is still out."

"But we will make a list of a who is available and the rest will come from the under-21 team. We are talking about the future and they will get the opportunity to show what they can do in these games."

"You have much more to lose and it puts pressure on everybody.

"The players can't think that this is just the Capital One Cup and not the Premier League.

"Everyone knows the Premier League is the daily bread but we want to go as far as possible in the cup, and a win would set us up for Stoke."
