#4 Swansea slowly slipping into familiar territory again - the relegation zone

Arsenal v Swansea City - Premier League
Paul Clement has a lot of work to do to improve Swansea

The Welsh side may have survived relegation by the skin of their teeth last season after Paul Clement arrived and cemented their status as a Premier League team. The club were in the relegation zone for 18 game weeks and only managed to climb out towards the very end.

However, this season's start has been far from promising. The Swans had a massive squad overhaul with 18 players leaving the club while 13 new players joined the club this summer.

What it has resulted in is Clement still scratching his head when it comes to deciding which formation to use. He has so far employed a 3-5-2, a 4-3-3, a 4-3-1-2 and a 3-1-4-2 formation with little to no success from any of the formations.

His side has only won two games so far - against a struggling Crystal Palace and newly-promoted Huddersfield. Six losses in 10 games does not bode well for the Swans and they look destined to fight another relegation battle.
