Gary Rowett makes “extreme” Swansea City claim ahead of Millwall clash tonight

Millwall boss Gary Rowett has praised Swansea City’s extreme style ahead of his side’s meeting with the Swans this evening.

“They give you problems in different ways. What we’ve got to do is play like we’re at home – front foot and try and make the game difficult for them.”

Millwall come into the match after earning a decent draw away to Luton Town at the weekend – although Rowett will have been disappointed to concede a late equaliser.
