Swansea boss Carvalhal: No-one's told me job over

Swansea City boss Carlos Carvalhal insists no-one has told him he will be axed after today's clash with Stoke City.

Carvalhal is expected to be dumped, according to local press reports.

But he says: "The only person I talk to is the chairman, I spoke to him but he mentioned nothing to me so it is not official and it is speculation. If the club do a statement or the chairman talks to me and there is a decision, it will be a reality. It is not a reality.

"It is not nice and not good for me, especially when we deal with a group of players but I think it is good I have a good relationship with the players.

"Out of the pressure, training was good today, there was no problem and this is positive. If I did not have a good relationship with the players it would be hard. This is not a nice situation, it was a big pressure to represent such a nice club with fantastic fans."
