Swans in a relegation battle - boss Bradley

Bob Bradley admits Swansea City are in a relegation battle - but says he has the fans' backing after meeting the Supporters' Trust.

Bradley, who succeeded Francesco Guidolin as Swans boss, lost his first game in charge at Arsenal.

And although Swansea are 19th in the Premier League, Bradley was encouraged when he met fans this week.

"They went out of their way to say 'You have a big job but we welcome you and we are here to support you'," he said.

"They shoot straight. They make it very clear at that moment - here are the expectations both on the field and off but they also totally dismiss some of the hype that I am not wanted or there are things held against me at the start.
