Shelvey has Swansea future, insists Curtis

Jonjo Shelvey has a huge part to play in the rest of Swansea City's season, according to caretaker boss Alan Curtis.

Alan Curtis insists Jonjo Shelvey remains part of Swansea City's plans, despite being dropped from the matchday squad for the 2-1 defeat at Manchester United on Saturday.

Shelvey fell out of favor towards the end of Garry Monk's Liberty Stadium reign, and has failed to regain his first-choice status under caretaker boss Curtis.

The England international formed part of a heavily rotated starting XI in the 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace on Monday but failed to impress.
