Swansea City manager Francesco Guidolin has backed his side to get themselves out of potential relegation trouble following a difficult start to the new campaign.

The Swans lost to Liverpool on Saturday to mark their third straight defeat, leading to increased speculation regarding Guidolin's future at the club.

"I am sure in the future this team can turn this situation," said Guidolin, according to BBC Sport.

"The relationship between my players and me is perfect. The best thing in these nine months is to meet my players. I am sure they have good qualities, good character.

"I am worried for the table, not my position. It is not good. We need more points."

Swansea have so far amassed four points from a possible 21 and find themselves in 17th place in the league standings.
