Swansea City manager Bob Bradley admits that he needs more time to turn the club's form around following their 3-1 defeat to Manchester United.

Swansea City manager Bob Bradley has admitted that he needs more time to turn the club's fortunes around following this afternoon's 3-1 defeat to Manchester United.

First-half goals from Paul Pogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic (2) punished an abject display from the hosts at the Liberty Stadium, before Mike van der Hoorn nodded in a late consolation.

The defeat leaves Swansea joint bottom of the table and without a win since the opening day of the season, and Bradley acknowledged that results need to improve soon.

"We got pushed deep and they punished us. Paul Pogba smacks a great volley and then we seemed to drop. They had too much of the ball and we were not confident enough, you can't give a good team that much space," he told BBC Sport.

"We have to be honest with ourselves, in the first half we were too easy to play against, we let them totally dictate the match.

"We haven't found a consistent group yet. If you look at the four games I think we should have more than one point. We need more time but when I say that I don't talk about time without results, it has to be time with results."

Bradley has picked up just one point from his four games in charge of Swansea so far.
