Monk: 'I've got chairman's full backing'

Swansea City boss Garry Monk has revealed that he has the "full backing" of his chairman Huw Jenkins amid reports that his job is in danger.

Monk's future has come into question after his side managed just one win in 10 Premier League games.

Reports have claimed that the Welsh outfit are willing to stick with Monk through a tough period on the pitch, and the coach himself told reporters that Jenkins is fully behind him.

"He trusts how I work," Monk said in his press conference. "He's seen that the way I work has brought success to the club in the past. He knows we can get through this period if we're all united, which we are.

"I speak to the chairman regularly, every week. He's given me his full backing, he's been extraordinary."

Swansea will take on Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday.
