Swansea boss Michael Laudrup has confirmed that Jonathan de Guzman will remain on penalty duty for the foreseeable future.
Competitive
Swansea's next outing sees them welcome Newcastle United to the Liberty Stadium and Laudrup is looking for his side to put their cup heroics behind them and turn their attention back to the pursuit of precious points.
He said: "If you look at some of the sides we have to play, they all have something to play for.
"Newcastle are not 100 per cent safe, neither are Norwich. West Brom are still playing for a place in Europe while Arsenal and Tottenham are going for the Champions League.
"We cannot stop being competitive because if we do we will lose all the games.
"It is part of being more mature; I am not saying we have to win six or seven of these games but we must keep being competitive.
"Look at last year when the team reached 39 points after some very good weeks, then suddenly lost five of the last nine, so we cannot stop competing, we have to go on."
