The Swans have picked up just one point from their last three matches while those around them keep winning.
Swansea City manager Paul Clement
Swansea City are just one point above Hull City and the Premier League relegation zone after a 0-0 draw at home with Middlesbrough.
It is the latest result in a run of form that has seen the honeymoon period since the appointment of Paul Clement as manager apparently come to an end.
When Clement took charge on January 3 the Swans were rock bottom with 12 points from 19 games. Five wins from his first eight league matches took them to 16th and five points clear of the drop.
However, since then Swansea have taken just one point from three potentially winnable ties – Hull and AFC Bournemouth way (both losses) and then Boro at home.
Swansea City’s Leroy Fer in action
While Clement’s magic touch appears to be waning, the teams around the South Wales outfit go marching on. Hull, Crystal Palace and Leicester City were all victorious over the weekend, the latter two having now won four on the bounce.
With eight games remaining for both Swansea and Hull and a one point gap between them, can Clement rediscover the fighting spirit that the Tigers are maintaining under Marco Silva?
