What They're Saying
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho (via BBC): "It's a difficult kickoff to the season for us. [Swansea City manager Garry Monk's] doing very well and the club is doing magnificently. Garry's got a good team already, but he's improved the team. It's a very good team and he's a very good young manager at a club that I admire a lot."
Swansea City manager Garry Monk (via Goal): "He [Andre Ayew] has all the credentials, skill and ability to do well. He's a great caliber of signing, but it's not down to one man to produce everything. He'll be working with the team and his quality and experience will help us. It helps the squad become competitive, which we want in every position and it's probably the first season I can remember we've had that."
