Swansea's Paul Clement named Premier League Manager of the Month

New Swansea City boss Paul Clement has been named the Premier League's Manager of the Month for January.

Clement, appointed on Jan. 3 with the club at the foot of the table, saw Swansea beat Crystal Palace 2-1 on his first day in the job and, despite losing 4-0 to Arsenal in their next league game, ended the month with a 3-2 win over Liverpool and a 2-1 success against Southampton to move out of the relegation zone.

"It is a real honour to receive the manager of the month award, because there are a lot of very good managers and very good teams in this league," Clement told Swansea's official website.
