Luke Williams | I am pleased with the win, but we want to have greater intensity

Head coach Luke Williams was pleased with a winning start and a clean sheet, but wants Swansea City to show greater accuracy and intensity as they look to build on their FA Cup victory over Morecambe.

Williams – who was appointed as Swans boss on Friday – saw second-half goals from Charlie Patino and Jerry Yates seal safe passage through the third-round tie at the Swansea.com Stadium.

Patino opened the scoring just minutes after the restart from Sam Parker’s cross, before Yates volleyed home after the visitors had been unable to clear a series of balls into the penalty area.

At the other end, keeper Andy Fisher was barely troubled on his first appearance of the season, and Williams was pleased with aspects of the performance.

But the new Swans boss also identified areas he is keen for the team to improve on.

“The positives were that we made a lot of box entries and scored two goals, which is pretty good," he said.

"We have kept a clean sheet and I am really happy with that.

“I think we need to work on being more accurate and more clinical in our build-up to understand our positioning a bit better.

“I think we can play with more intensity. There were times we played some nice stuff, but we did not make the most of the space after some good passages of play.

“We will now try and get in as much work as we can. I am looking forward to getting in as much work as possible with the players and the coaching staff to try and shape the performances in a way we really like.

“The big thing is we now have our first sample of work where we can identify what is not good and what is good.”

Williams had spoken pre-match of what it would mean to him to lead the Swans on home turf for the first time, and he acknowledged it had only increased his desire to deliver a side to excite supporters.

“It was very, very special. It’s an incredible arena. The people here have been so warm, so I really need to work hard for them and make them proud of the team. That’s my mission,” he said.
