Britton urges Swansea to make most of Arsenal win

Swansea City midfielder Leon Britton is urging the club to make yesterday's 3-2 win over Arsenal really count.

The Swans were brilliant in defeating the Gunners at Liberty Stadium and Britton wants that result to not be a one-off as the Welsh club looks to move into the top half of the Premier League table.

"These are the games that make people sit up and take notice a bit more," said Britton.

"When you beat a big team, especially on the telly, you get more people watching and it gets your name out there, but we are very grounded as a bunch of lads and we will be keeping our feet on the ground.

"It's been coming. In our last home game against Tottenham we played well and were unlucky, we got a draw but could have got the win, and we did well at Aston Villa to get our first away win and now we have beaten Arsenal. It has been a good start to the new year but we are not getting carried away.

"We said after we got that first away win at Villa that we wanted to beat one of the top sides in the country and we have done that, but we have to kick on and make sure we keep getting results."
