Swans face winger dilemma

Swansea boss Brendan Rodgers has to decide whether or not to recall Nathan Dyer at Tottenham or stick with Wayne Routledge.

Dyer has been suspended for the last three games following his sending off against Wigan and during his spell out of the side Routledge has impressed when filling in.

Routledge was outstanding in the recent 3-0 win over Fulham at Craven Cottage and it would be a bit harsh on the winger if he was dropped for the returning Dyer.

Rodgers now has a dilemma but has hinted that Dyer may have to settle for a place on the bench at White Hart Lane.

"Nathan might have to wait for a chance on the bench," he told walesonline. "The team have been fantastic if you look at March as a whole. Of course the Everton result (2-0 loss) was disappointing, but we took nine points from 12 overall.

"That is a fantastic return and Wayne has played a great role in that."

Elsewhere, Rodgers has no fresh injury problems ahead of the game as the Swans look to finish the season in style.
