Swansea in the 'best situation' with Premier League survival in their hands, claims midfielder Leroy Fer

Swansea City have their fate in their own hands after winning two of their last three Premier League games, midfielder Leroy Fer has said ahead of Saturday's trip to relegated Sunderland.

Swansea capitalised on Hull City's 2-0 defeat by Sunderland on Saturday by beating Everton to move a point and a place ahead of Hull with two games left.

'We go into the next two games with a lot of momentum and in a position where we know our Premier League status is in our hands,' Fer told the club's website.
