I wrote Swansea off at the beginning of the season, and although we're only three games in they're looking good. Gary Monk has a decent group of players and they all seem to respect him and want to play well for him, there are currently very few managers who can command that outside of Mourinho, Sean Dyche and Gus Poyet in the Premiership.

It's definitely a trait that makes up for the lack of experience he and the latter two have at that level, and because of that a top 8 finish is a real possibility for Swansea.
