Williams Ready To Talk To Jenkins About Swansea’s Season

Ashley Williams is determined there will no repeat of this season’s battle for survival for Swansea City.

The Swans skipper is ready to sit down and talk with Huw Jenkins when the chairman holds his planned summer review.

That should go ahead with the Liberty Stadium outfit planning for another campaign in the Premier League.

Swansea are 10 points above the drop zone after North east rivals Newcastle and Sunderland fought out a 1-1 draw on Sunday.

But Williams reckons there have been too many changes this season with Garry Monk replaced by interim boss Alan Curtis who then handed over to Francesco Guidolin.

The Wales centre-back, 31, admitted: “This season has been a grind, it’s not been enjoyable.

“There’s been a lot of changes with the manager, it’s not been ideal. It’s unacceptable for a club like Swansea to have a season like this with the players that we have got.

“We have got it wrong for whatever reason. There is a lot of talking to be done in the summer.

“We will all have to do a lot of reflecting, look at ourselves, look at us as a squad, what’s been going on. There’s been a lot been going on.

“It’s kind of one you want to get out of the way, be safe, see where you finish and try and put everything right for next season and have another good one.

“But this happens to everyone, hopefully this is our season but the pleasing thing is we have got through it.

“We’ve done what we had to do in certain games, like the Norwich game and Villa where we haven’t played pretty but we’ve got the points on the board.

“I have a good relationship with the chairman and if he wants to speak to me I will, but I don’t think it’s for me to tell him we need this, this and this.”

“The pressure’s off a little bit, but we shouldn’t be saying we’ve beat Villa, we’ve got 36 points, we’re done.

“The goal now is to look above us and not behind and try and claw some of the teams just above us back.

“If we are to finish towards mid-table it won’t look as bad as it does at the minute.”
