Swansea City manager Bob Bradley admits that the club is in a relegation battle but says that they can quickly get out of it with a few wins – starting on Saturday at home against Watford.
During Thursday’s pre-match press conference, the American was asked if his team were already in a relegation battle, to which he simply replied ‘Yes’.
His side are only second from bottom with just 4 points after 8 games, and they desperately need only their second win of the season to move out of the bottom three.
Bradley said:
‘If you look at the way the team has played in recent years, you can easily say this is a team that has shown itself to be a mid-table-type team with the possibility of being in the top 10.
‘And I’m hoping as we continue to work every week, that can eventually be a goal again. It’s not as if that idea has been forgotten. But I know the history, I know how important it is to be in the Premier League.
‘Whether we’re in a relegation fight for two more weeks, six more weeks, it depends. If we can start winning games it won’t be a question, but in the meantime it’s our job to get on a run and re-establish ourselves.’
