Swansea City defender Angel Rangel has welcomed the international break.
With Swansea involved in the Europa League, the Welsh outfit have already played seven games.
"I think it has come at the right time, and it is a welcome break," Rangel told the Swansea Evening Post.
"We had a difficult August with so many games to play, especially the ones that we knew we needed to win to advance in the Europa League.
"We managed to get through that, but we also had a difficult start in the Premier League. But after the win over West Brom it's nice to have that break so we're ready for the challenges ahead."
