Alan Sheehan has been terminated by Swansea City following an unfavorable commencement to the Championship season, according to talkSPORT.

The Swans are currently occupying the 18th position in the second division and have only secured one victory in their last seven league matches.
In February, Sheehan assumed the role of interim manager before being named head coach in April.

Nevertheless, he has been terminated from his position at the Welsh club.

Swansea has experienced their most challenging commencement to a season since their relegation from the Premier League in 2018.

They have only won four of their 15 Championship matches thus far and have only accrued 17 points.

The struggles of Sheehan’s swans

Sheehan’s final encounter at Swansea was a resounding 4-1 home loss to Ipswich Town on Saturday.

Cameron Burgess, who relocated from Ipswich in the summer, scored two own-goals as the Swans suffered their third consecutive loss.

Sheehan departs Swansea with 17 victories from 39 matches in all competitions, as well as 12 losses.

He is the fifth Championship manager to be dismissed thus far this season.

The 39-year-old takes after Ruben Selles, Paulo Pezzolano, Will Still, and Liam Manning.

Swansea made a tumultuous start to the campaign, winning only three of their first eight league matches.

Nevertheless, their most recent winless streak has resulted in a decline in their position in the ranking, despite the fact that they are still seven points ahead of the bottom three.

Swansea was also eliminated from the Carabao Cup in the fourth round after losing to Manchester City 3-1.

“The first half was incredibly disappointing; we were far below par,” Sheehan stated following their significant loss to Ipswich.

“We committed an excessive number of turnovers, which is unacceptable when facing a team of this caliber.”

“We implemented a few modifications during halftime and endeavored to be more aggressive in the appropriate areas, resulting in a well-executed goal.”

“However, we were unable to achieve any results by continuing to play in the manner we did, particularly in the first half of today. We turned the ball over and hit the post.”

“I comprehend the frustration that all individuals, including the fans, are experiencing; we all watch the same game, so I do comprehend it.” We share the same sentiment.

“I have encountered challenging circumstances throughout my professional career. I have been involved in the industry for an extended period of time and comprehend the objectives we are attempting to achieve. However, we are aware that the outcomes are not in accordance with our expectations.”
