Swansea City (The Swans) is a Welsh football who play in the Premier League. They were founded in 1912 (106 years ago). They have been in the Premier League for 7 years now, before that they were 3 years in the Championship before being promoted.
Over the 7 years of Swansea being in the Premier League they have been mid table with their best being 8th place, but over the last 3 years they have not been doing so good ending in 12th and 15th place and now they are fighting to not be relegated. This season is there 98th season in the English football league system. After the departure of players like Gylfi Sigurdsson, Fernando Llorente and Jack cork haven’t signed any great players that could help them in the league. Swansea really need to win there last 4 games of the season to not get relegated into the Championship, there last 4 games will be against Chelsea, Bournemouth, and then there are two huge games against Southampton and Stoke city witch are the teams in the relegation zone. There top goal scorer is Jordan Ayew with 7 goals, the howl team have only scored 27 goals all season and just to put that to perspective Mohamed Salah has scored 31 goals. And they have conceded 51 goals all season. Today they just played Man City and lost 5-0. If Swansea want to stay up in the League and not get relegated they have to pull them self together and play good football and sign some better players for next season. I believe if they don’t strengthen there squad for next season then we wont see a lot more of Swansea in the Premier League for the next couple of years.
