Swansea City sack Manager Bob Bradley


Swansea City have sacked Bob Bradley after only 85 days in charge of the Premier League club.


Monday's 4-1 home defeat by West Ham was Swans' seventh in 11 games since Bradley took over on 3 October and leaves them on 12 points, above bottom club Hull on goal difference.

Bradley was the first American to manage a Premier League club.

Chairman Huw Jenkins said: "We felt we had to make the change with half the Premier League season remaining."

He added: "With the club going through such a tough time, we have to try and find the answers to get ourselves out of trouble.

"I have nothing but praise for Bob. He is a good man; a good person who gave everything to the job. His work-rate is phenomenal and we wish him well for the future.''

Bradley managed USA, Egypt and Stabaek in Norway before leaving French second division club Le Havre to succeed Francesco Guidolin, who had himself only been appointed in January.
