STOKE-ON-TRENT, England -- Three quick thoughts from Stoke City's 3-1 Premier League win over Swansea at the Bet365 Stadium on Monday.
1. Bradley suffers another setback
Three games, one point. Things are going badly for Bob Bradley at Swansea. There have been elements to offer optimism in each of the American's three matches in charge, but the reality is a 3-1 reverse at Stoke was his second defeat. More concerning is the sight of a league table showing Swansea five points from safety, a worryingly large gap even at this embryonic stage.
The reality is their last nine matches, six overseen by Francesco Guidolin, have produced just two points.
