Flynn Downes produced a dominant midfield display as Swansea City dismantled rivals Cardiff City 4-0 on Saturday.
The 23-year-old typified everything about the current regime with his performance against the Bluebirds which included real moments of bravery in possession along with pieces of quality and combativeness. Of his side's starters, only two-goal hero Michael Obafemi ended the contest with a higher passing accuracy than Downes' impressive figure of 90.6%.

Downes also won three free-kicks and completed one dribble, although, as ever, he was more than happy to do the other side of the game. The former Ipswich Town man made two tackles, two clearances and also got himself in the right place to block a shot to help ensure the Swans kept their 15th league clean sheet of the campaign.
