Swansea boss Rodgers admits crisis talks on eve of West Brom win

Swansea City boss Brendan Rodgers was delighted with the response from his players for their win at West Bromwich Albion.

Rodgers revealed he called a team meeting on Friday night after Swansea allowed Chelsea to level deep in injury-time last week.

The Swans chief said: "Today was a good test of all the things we spoke about. The players came through it with flying colours."

Rodgers' Premier League newcomers are already on 30 points and sitting in a lofty 10th place.

He added: "It's an incredible achievement for the players, not just the points but the style in which they've played."
