'I GAVE MY ALL AT SWANSEA'

Bob Bradley has opened up on his 85-day reign as Swansea boss, discussing his overall coaching philosophy.
"After 70 days with the club, I had dinner with the owners and the chairman. There was confidence and optimism that night following an important 3-0 win over Sunderland at the Liberty a few days earlier. We had won a respectable eight points from my eight matches in charge and, more importantly, had two wins and a draw in our last four games.
"But in the week that followed we lost two away matches. The script was familiar. We'd start well, but concede the first goal. Playing from behind meant taking risks and opening up. Confidence dropped and we were not able to build on our positive results.
"My postgame interview after a 3-0 loss to Middlesbrough only made matters worse. I said that we needed to show more resilience "on the road" (the English prefer the word away), and referred to a penalty kick as a "PK." People on social media screamed that American sports terms had no place in the Premier League."
