Ki: Swansea still believe they can survive the drop

Ki Sung-Yueng insists the Swansea City squad still believe they can still get the required results to retain their Premier League status.

Swansea enjoyed an initial honeymoon period under manager Paul Clement but a 1-0 defeat to Watford on Saturday was their fifth defeat in their last six matches.

The Welsh outfit have lost their last six on the road and are two points behind Hull City with five games left of the league season.

And Ki is confident the Swans can avoid relegation, especially as they prepare to welcome Stoke, Everton and West Brom to the Liberty Stadium between now and the final day.

“We still believe we can win games, especially when we are playing at home,” the midfielder said. “We have five games to go this season and we still believe in ourselves.

“We have had some great games this season. We have produced some really good results when the pressure has been on.

“The recent run has been disappointing, but now we have to try to find our confidence and try to get some good results again.

“If we can get a win against Stoke next weekend, the confidence will be boosted and we will have a chance in the four games after that.”
