Swansea City boss Garry Monk feels Liverpool rival Brendan Rodgers can get the best out of Mario Balotelli.
Balotelli is yet to score in the Premier League this season.
"Yeah, massive," he told Sky Sports 1 when asked about the importance of the victory.
"We all knew the performance that we put in last Sunday (against Liverpool), (we were) disappointed not to come away with a point.
"We knew if we put in half that performance today we'd get something from the game and luckily we put in even more of a performance and got the three points. It was massive for us."
