Clement grateful for Swansea’s timely good form

Swansea Head Coach Paul Clement will be delighted if his side can grab the points they need to avoid the drop in their final three games, starting with their clash with Everton.

When Clement took over as head coach in January, the Swans were bottom of the table, but have claimed 20 points since the his arrival.

“We know that if we manage to survive this year it will be a remarkable achievement,” he said.

“It has not been done often, anything worthwhile you have to work hard for. You have to go through an ordeal with all the pressure, and we certainly will have done that.

“If we can do what we have set out to do this season, it’s going to be a really good feeling.”

After losing three in a row, the Swans go into Saturday’s game on a high following a home win over Stoke City and an impressive draw at Old Trafford last weekend.

And Clement is grateful for his side hitting form as the season comes to an end.

“We have got three games left now and we have to try to win all three of them,” he said.

“Our form is good. We played well against Stoke and then again at Manchester United, so we go into the game with a lot of confidence.”
