Laudrup targets home improvements
Michael Laudrup is targeting an improvement in Swansea City's home form after a difficult opening to the Premier League campaign.
The Welsh outfit have yet to register a home success in the top flight this season, with a 2-2 draw against Liverpool the only point claimed by the side at the Liberty Stadium.
Their latest setback on home soil came in Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Arsenal, as a first professional goal from Serge Gnabry and an Aaron Ramsey strike put Arsene Wenger's charges into a commanding position.
Full-back Ben Davies notched a late consolation for Swansea, but they did not have time to force an equaliser.
Swansea face a trip to Southampton in their next Premier League outing, but host Sunderland and West Ham at the Liberty after the international break.
The club have tasted success at in their own back yard this season, with big wins against Malmo and Petrolul Ploiesti in the UEFA Europa League.
But Laudrup is keen to take their European form into the domestic campaign and start picking up maximum hauls in their league fixtures.
"It has been a tough start," he said. "Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal at home but that's how it is. We can't change that.
