Swansea City boss Carlos Carvalhal had no complaints after their 3-0 FA Cup defeat to Tottenham.

The Swans' seven-game home winning streak came to an abrupt and as two goals from Christian Eriksen and another from Erik Lamela saw Spurs cruise to a 3-0 victory at the Liberty Stadium.

“I said before the game that we needed to be at our best and that Tottenham would have to be not so good if we were going to win," said the Swans manager.

“They are a better team than us, everybody knows this, and they took the game very seriously.

“I think the respect they showed us (in picking a strong team) shows they had analysed our team – they knew they must perform at their best to win here.

“They were the best team, even though there were certain moments in the game which could have made things different."

But he added: “Our cup run is at an end, but it has been a big positive for us. It's the club's best run since 1964. We have used a lot of the squad in the cup games and also some under-23 players, so there have been a lot of positives."
