Chelsea 4-2 Swansea: Monk admits Chelsea were 'dose of realism'

Swansea manager Garry Monk admits Chelsea gave the Welsh side "a dose of realism" as they lose their 100% winning start to the season after a 4-2 defeat at Stamford Bridge.

The Swans took a well deserved lead through a John Terry own goal, but a hat-trick from Diego Costa and a goal from Loic Remy turned the game round for the hosts despite Jonjo Shelvey's late consolation.

Swansea are yet to record a Premier League win against Chelsea and have been beaten in all four away meetings at Stamford Bridge.
