Swansea City boss Garry Monk will be given more time to turn things around.

WalesOnline says it is understood that while club bosses have grown anxious about the side's recent performances, Monk will still be given time to try and turn things around - with the clash with Bournemouth a week on Saturday fast becoming a must-win match for the young manager.

There are claims Swans chairman Huw Jenkins is ready to sack Monk after a spell where the side have picked up just five points from the last 24 on offer.

However, there is still faith in the rookie boss but there is little doubt the home clash with Bournemouth a week Saturday has turned into a pressure game with fixtures against Liverpool, surprise package Leicester and Manchester City looming ominously on the horizon.
