Outspoken radio host Jason Cundy has branded Swansea City the 'turd' of the Premier League following Monday night's 3-1 defeat at Everton.

The former Chelsea and Spurs defender has previous with Welsh football famously calling Chris Coleman's Dragons 'a Dog and Duck pub team' during their exploits in Euro 2016 and re-iterating his claims when they failed to make it through the World Cup 2018 qualifiers.

Now his attack on Premier League basement boys Swansea is bound to infuriate fans of the Liberty Stadium club, who find themselves two points adrift at the bottom of the top flight table and four from safety following their defeat at Goodison Park.

Speaking on Monday night's The Sports Bar programme on talkSPORT , the show he co-hosts with Andy Goldstein, Cundy was asked what next for Swansea City and should they sack current boss Paul Clement.

"I think the Swansea situation is that they're the architects of their own downfall," said Cundy.

"This goes back to Garry Monk, it goes back to selling Jack Cork, it goes back to selling (Fernando) Llorente and the man who scored against them tonight (Gylfi) Sigurdsson.

"They're three really good Premier League players who've done a good job for Swansea.

"Paul Clement came in and kept them up last season and they've not really built and prepared themselves for this season or the ones two or three before that.

"This has been a steady decline and at the moment it's going to be two other teams with Swansea because I just can't see them salvaging it at the moment."

And on the question of whether Swansea should go down the same route as fellow strugglers West Ham, Crystal Palace, Everton and West Brom in sacking their manager, Cundy launched his scathing attack.

He added: "The question is who comes in, what are they going to do differently?

"He's only got what he's got - you can't polish a turd, so to speak."

And when asked by Goldstein to expand, asking: "So what you're saying is that Swansea are a turd?", Cundy added: "That's exactly right. They are.

"I like (Mike) Van Der Hoorn and (Alfie) Mawson, other than that there's not much there.

"That team is probably Championship.

"They've not spent and replaced the players they've sold. Their decision making since the new owners have come in has been poor.

"They brought in Bob Bradley and (Francesco) Guidolin as managers and these have been poor decisions.

"You go back to the decisions Huw Jenkins was making when he had total control of that football club and they were good decisions.

"They brought in good managers and they managed to survive and become a steady Premier League team. Now they're going down."
