Everton fortunate but Swansea win shows we are a good team - Jagielka

Everton's Phil Jagielka felt he and his teammates showed the public they are a good team on Sunday.

The Toffees fought hard to beat Swansea City 2-1 at the Liberty Stadium thanks to goals from Seamus Coleman and Ross Barkley which came either side of Bryan Ovieod's own-goal in the 70th minute.

After the match, Jagielka told Sky Sports that Everton showed they are certainly a top side as they remained fourth on the Premier League table.

"It's a massive result because everyone around us won. It was a big game for us, we might have been fortunate to take all three points but that's the sign of a good team," the captain said.
