What They're Saying

Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert (via ESPN FC): "I'm proud of them for the way we played [against Swansea City]. We probably did to Swansea what they do to most teams coming here. I thought we out-passed them and penned them in at the end, and I'm really pleased with the way we're playing at the minute."

Sunderland manager Gus Poyet (via Sky Sports): "I don't think anyone can hide it's very difficult to go and win two or three in a row. We thought it was the right time for us. We started the game [against Hull City] with a goal in the beginning, but like I said, the key moments that are happening too many times now are not worth talking about."
