Nathan Dyer urges Swansea City to focus on the whole of Tottenham's team tomorrow, not just Gareth Bale.

Swansea City midfielder Nathan Dyer believes that he and his teammates must not be dragged into putting all their focus on Tottenham Hotspur star Gareth Bale this weekend.

The Welsh outfit go up against Spurs and Bale, who has netted 12 goals in 13 games for both club and country, tomorrow afternoon.

"I think if you concentrate on what [Bale is] doing most of the time you don't see the runs from other players," London 24 quotes Dyer as saying.

"They have got dangerous players in the whole of their squad. Obviously Gareth is the main man at the moment, but they have players who can score goals from anywhere on the pitch.

"We can't focus everything on Gareth, obviously you have to try to stop him somehow, but you have to make sure everyone else is taken care of as well."

The Swans are currently ninth in the Premier League table with eight games left to play.
