The Sun published that appointed De Guzman as designated penalty taker.
MICHAEL LAUDRUP will put Jonathan de Guzman on the spot if Swansea get a penalty at home to Newcastle tomorrow. De Guzman stepped up to score Swansea’s fourth from 12 yards in Sunday’s 5-0 Capital One Cup final victory over Bradford. But only after fighting off two-goal Nathan Dyer for the privilege – after the Dutchman himself had been felled in the box. Swans boss Laudrup, whose side had not had a spot-kick this season, said; “Maybe we will go on a good run now and get another one on Saturday. “I have a designated penalty taker. I will never change the winner and if Jonathan is on the pitch he will take the penalty.” Swans will make at least one change from the side that beat Bantams, with Garry Monk set to replace Sung-Yueng Ki at centre-half with the South Korean moving into midfield.
