Two-goal Michu thrilled with winning Swansea debut

Swansea City's two-goal hero Michu was delighted with his winning Premier League debut at QPR.

As well as never previously winning at QPR, Swansea had lost all their opening-day fixtures since 2005, while many predicted they would struggle following the departures of Brendan Rodgers and Joe Allen.

Michu told Swans Player: "It's been an unforgettable day. It couldn't have gone better. It's my first real game for Swansea City and I scored two goals and started in great shape.

"The most important thing is that the team has won 5-0. It's three points that are going to make us grow and grow into the league."

The 26-year-old added: "It's been such a good start and I didn't expect, first game of the season, to score two goals.

"I hit the crossbar as well and could have got a hat-trick.

"I'm very pleased with the fans as well, I was very impressed, and I hope I'm going to keep going."
