Graham hails Rodgers influence on Swansea success

Danny Graham feels Swansea City's success is tied to manager Brendan Rodgers.

Rodgers insists he's committed to the Liberty Stadium, which is good news for striker Graham.

He said: "Brendan is a top manager who is going in the right direction. I'm sure he will go on and manage at a top club one day."

And Graham also revealed that, contrary to his smiling image, Rodgers can cut up rough when the occasion demands.

He said: "He doesn't mind having a ruck with us at half-time. If it's not going well, he will tell us and have a go at us. It's happened a couple of times this season. But the players respect him because he's honest. We all like that."
