Prior to this game Jordan told Swansea’s official website “I’m confident that things are going to be okay.”
“The most important thing now is that we start getting points because we can’t afford to waste any more time. It’s been a difficult start but it’s important that we start getting things right, especially at home this weekend.”
He added: “I’m positive that this season will get better not just for me personally but for the whole club,” he added. Maybe it’s a good thing that mistakes are happening now so that we can correct them quickly and do better.”
The win brought enough relief for under fire coach Paul Clement as the team got their second win out of eight games having lost 4 and earning two points in the other games.
