    Swansea have decided not to renew Carlos Carvalhal's contract and Sunday's game will be his last.

    Unless he wins it 10-0, in which case I suspect the decision would be reviewed.

    I would have thought that he wouldn't have been a bad manager to have in the Championship, as he did OK at the Wendies.

    He's finally been found out. Poor manager.

    What's the betting that Swansea beat stoke 10-0, but Southampton get an equaliser against Man City in the 98th minute with the final kick of the game!
    I'd laugh me **** off.

    He got 32 points in 24 games with Swansea, had he replicated that for a full season, they'd be in the top ten.

    Strange results can happen on the last day of the season

    West Brom 5 Man U 5
    Boro 8 Man City 0

    in recent memory

    Although they tend to happen when teams have nothing to play for.

    But you never know.

    Yeah, but at the death...Didn't do it, bit like that Massive Club at Wembley, not turning up.

    Or like Marco Silva...

    The parallels are obvious - do the hard part with some great results and then **** it up against a relegation rival, at home, at the death.

    BCC....Fair observation. Silva isn't the first or the last one to do that. City's got a history of its own of bottling it at the last knockings.
    Terry Neill in 1970-71. Appleton..the list goes on.

    What's the likelihood of replicating a 24 game stretch over a full season? For an also ran team I'd guess almost zero.

    Over the last 6 games they have won 0 drawn 2 lost 4 GF 2 GA 10.

    Crap manager. Had a bit of a purple patch with new manager syndrome - after that?

    I don’t know about at Swansea cos I don’t watch the Premier League but he defo should’ve done better at FC Massive. The forwards he had to choose from was ridiculous.

    Or perhaps not...

    "The owners asked me if I am available to talk about staying. I said I need time to think."

    Swansea boss Carlos Carvalhal will meet the clubs owners to determine whether he will still be in charge next season.

    He needs time to think? Maybe he’s waiting for arsenal to make contact

    I think you'll find it's actually 24 points from the last 24 games.
