Swansea City fullback Angel Rangel insists the club is a happy camp.

There were suggestions last month that a section of Swansea stars were unhappy with Michael Laudrup's managerial style and some of his summer signings.

But the Spanish defender, 30, reckons the false allegations have fired the Welsh club into the top half of the Premier League.

Rangel said: "Everyone is happy and it's important that we keep going in the same direction. A month ago people were talking about unrest. We always knew there was none within the squad and the motivation has come from the players wanting to prove that it was all talk."
