Carlos Carvalhal "not worried" about Swansea City relegation

Swansea City manager Carlos Carvalhal insists that he is "not worried" about relegation from the Premier League, despite seeing his side slip into the bottom three.

Swansea City manager Carlos Carvalhal has insisted that he is "not worried" about relegation from the Premier League, despite seeing his side slip into the bottom three with only two games remaining.

The Swans slumped to a 1-0 defeat away to Bournemouth this afternoon - a result which saw them drop into the relegation zone following Southampton's 1-1 draw with Everton in the later kickoff.

Swansea will face Southampton in a huge relegation six-pointer at the Liberty Stadium on Tuesday night, and Carvalhal insists that he will not be concerned about the threat of the drop until his side's fate is out of their own hands.

"I am not worried because we depend on ourselves. When we arrived if I would have said we have two games to finish the season and it would be possible to stay in the Premier then no one would have believed me," he told reporters.

"It was really bad and no one would have believed me. We have these things in our hands, we can do it, let's do it. In the Liberty Stadium we are more strong, my team play better at home, the fans are making a big impact.

"When you depend on yourself, we can do it. You don't need to look at other teams, you must look to ourselves. In reality we play two home games and we are happy about that."

Swansea, who are now winless in their last eight matches across all competitions, face Stoke City in their final game of the campaign.
