Michael Laudrup predicts 'sleepless nights'

Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup believes that he will endure a number of sleepless nights during the January transfer window.

The Swans have been in impressive form this season, which has resulted in rival clubs being linked with star man Michu, as well as previously out-of-favour striker Danny Graham.

The Danish boss believes that he will be busy at all hours over the coming few weeks.

"What I asked of the players when the transfer window in August finished was, 'who is here now to give everything?' I think everyone has done that in training – even players who are not playing and have not been in the squad," said Laudrup.

"I think that's being a professional. It's not always easy because everyone wants to play but that's the way you have to accept it.

"Now again we're in January with another transfer window. Let's see what happens in this month. I'm looking forward to February 1 – then we can all sleep."

Swansea drew 2-2 with Arsenal in the FA Cup third round on Sunday.
