Swansea legend Alan Curtis wants "the best available" manager to take over.

He told BBC Radio Wales: "You talk of [Frank] Lampard and [Eddie} Howe and I just can't see those people coming to the club.

"I think we're going to have to go with another young manager. I think he's got to have the ability to work with younger players.

"Certainly there's a style of play which we'd like to think that we play. I don't say we lost that under Steve absolutely, but we just need somebody who knows the [financial] restrictions really.

"We haven't got a potful of money so he's going to have to work with what we've got, develop young players and then I'm sure he'll be given every opportunity to be a success."

Curtis believes the majority of Swansea fans will accept that reaching the Premier League is not the main priority at this stage.

"It may be a little while before we can achieve that ambition, but the main thing is we get back playing and get a philosophy back to the club and I think most supporters will settle for that,"
he said.
 
Curtis clearly didn't enjoy the football Cooper served up!....................<laugh>
Not many did , me being one. if we had gone up then we'r d have been lambs to the slaughter playing Coopers was, to defend pinch a goal and try and hold on would never have worked, we were successful initially by being able to play football , it was when Monk who started to play a similar fashion and that's when the decline began .
