Ki targets improved run


Ki Sung-yueng admits Swansea are in a crisis and are under pressure to start delivering results for manager Bob Bradley.

The Swans are currently 19th in the Premier League table, six points from safety, after picking up just one win in their first 11 games.

Francesco Guidolin paid the price for the club's poor start to the season - they picked up just four points from the opening seven games - but Bradley is without a win in four games since taking charge at the Liberty Stadium.

Ki admits the former United States coach has yet to get to identify his best team but the Korean international is confident they can turn things around.

"The team is in the relegation zone, so the atmosphere cannot be good," he told reporters while on international duty.

"We are feeling much pressure. In order to overcome this, we need to win as soon as possible, then we can escape from the relegation zone.

"Bob Bradley is trying to figure out the team and players. It's not easy to change a team in a month. Upcoming matches will be more important.

"I have experienced a relegation battle in the past [on loan at Sunderland] so I know the atmosphere well. I will make most from that experience. I cannot lead the team by myself, but I will try to work with team-mates to overcome this crisis."
