"He's brought in a few new rules, including keeping the training ground and the dressing room more tidy. Training is now mixed up every day... he also works us harder, but it's more fun." the 28-year-old told British media.

"In matches, we are much more compact. We now press as a team and not just as individuals." Naughton added of the tactics introduced by the former Chelsea, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich assistant.

Naughton, however, could face a spell on the sidelines after suffering a hamstring injury in the closing stages of Swansea's 3-2 win over Burnley on Saturday. He is set to undergo a scan later on Tuesday to discover the extent of the problem.

Swansea, who are five points clear of the relegation zone, visit 19th-placed Hull City on Saturday before travelling to 14th-placed Bournemouth on March 18.
