Swansea boss Laudrup: We lacked concentration at key moments

Swansea City boss Michael Laudrup felt their home defeat to Arsenal could've been avoided.

Laudrup felt a lack of concentration during a short spell in the second half had proved costly.

He said: "We did well in the first half, but we defended too deep for the first goal, there were a lot of bodies but when you are that deep one or two quality players can create a chance like they did.

"We then lost our position. The players wanted to go forward immediately to get the equaliser and when you do that you leave space for Jack Wilshere, Mesut Ozil and Aaron Ramsey and you can have problems, they created a chance and scored the other.

"I am disappointed that for 10-12 minutes we gave it away, we were punished in a very small period of the game."
