Swansea City captain Ashley Williams has praised his side's strength and resilience following their 1-0 victory over Burnley on Saturday.

The Welsh club were put into the lead by winger Nathan Dyer in the 23rd minute and managed to cling on to the only goal of the game to secure two wins from two Premier League fixtures.

"It's something we are aware of, sides thinking we are only a passing side and that we are a bit weak and a pushover," said Williams, according to The Express.

"We want to address that and we did that against a big, strong, physical side like Burnley. We stood up to them and we defended really well against a much bigger team, especially at set pieces.

"It goes to show that when we really put our minds to it, and do our work in the week, we can stand up to anyone."

Swansea currently find themselves holding third position in the Premier League table.
