Paul Clement: Swansea City players 'deserve' to be in top flight

Manager Paul Clement says Swansea City's players "deserve" to stay in the Premier League next season after winning their battle to survive.

Their 2-0 win over Sunderland left Hull needed a point at Crystal Palace on Sunday to maintain their survival bid.

But the hosts won 4-0, much to Clement's relief.

"Credit to the players for showing the form they have over the last four games to pick up 10 points from a possible 12," Clement told Swans' website.

"They deserve to be where they are - playing in the Premier League again.
