Swansea City chairman Huw Jenkins has insisted that manager Bob Bradley's job is safe for the foreseeable future, saying that the club 'needs stability'.
The American coach took over at the Liberty Stadium in October in the wake of Francesco Guidolin's dismissal but has picked up just one win from his seven games in charge to date, a run that has left the Swans rock bottom of the Premier League.
Reports have suggested that the Welsh side are already contemplating relieving Bradley of his duties, but Jenkins, who sold the club to American businessmen Jason Levien and Steve Kaplan over the summer, was quick to dismiss such speculation.
"I don't know where that story came from, but it's natural in football that everyone wants and needs results," Jenkins told talkSPORT. "But the last thing we need at this moment of time is a continual change in manager. We need stability first and foremost.
"Take a team like Fulham, they changed managers three times in the season they tried to stave off relegation and we're in a similar position now. Perhaps in the summer I could have made a better decision - from pre-season onwards I don't think things were right, it was too flat at the club. That had a knock-on effect and obviously it's taken us a while to work through it.
"But we're with Bob now to try and turn that corner - that's what we're working towards. We look at the January window as a chance to reinforce things. There are players not hitting the form levels they have done in the past and we have to find out why that is and get that right as well."
Swansea welcome fellow strugglers Sunderland to the Liberty on Saturday in a crucial relegation six-pointer.
