In his post match press conference after a 2-1 home loss against relegated side Stoke City at home, Swansea City head coach Carlos Carvalhal revealed that the American owners have “asked him about his availability to remain at the club”.

Not surprisingly, Swansea fans flooded in on Twitter with their disapproval of the news, as it’s crystal clear that the vast majority of supporters don’t want Carvalhal to stay as manager in the Championship next season.

In a recent Twitter poll that received almost 800 votes, fans were very much in favour of not keeping Carvalhal on as manager next season.

It was reported earlier this week that he would indeed be leaving the club, but Carvalhal at least would have us believe that that might necessarily not be the case, having claimed after today’s defeat against Stoke that the club’s owners have asked about his availability to stay:

However, that conflicts with what Riath has tweeted below, a Daily Mail journalist who believes there’s “no chance of him staying”.

But if there’s no chance of him staying, why ask him about his availability for next season? Carvalhal also said during the press conference that he will sit down with his family to consider his future, with more talks with the club expected on Monday.

“I’m only here for four months, so I can’t talk about the structure of the club. I’m not the best person to talk about that.

“I talked with the owners yesterday. We will talk again on Monday. I will think about Swansea and myself. I must talk with my family. After that I will make the right decision about my future.

“I know the Championship and reached the play-offs twice. It’s not common for a team to reach the play-offs two years in a row. In this moment, I must breathe. Afterwards, I will think about that.” Carlos Carvalhal

Shifting the focus and blame on our early season form for relegation after the Stoke defeat also hasn’t gone down well with fans – Carvalhal also said:
