If you had a look at the table, you would think Swansea City are a club in a decent position as they sit just six points behind the play-offs.

After a summer of major changes, both players and staff, it's a very respectable position. However, it doesn't tell the whole story by any means and doesn't begin to explain the terrific job that Graham Potter is doing in Wales.

That's because they are in turmoil off the pitch, with chairman Huw Jenkins stepping down from his role this week.

The long-serving Jenkins was rightly lauded for the success he helped bring to the club since his appointment in 2002, however his reputation has suffered a lot in recent years.

He has been criticised for his decision to sell the club to American pair Jason Levien and Steve Kaplan three years ago and since then results have suffered.

Primarily, it's because of a string of bad transfer decisions and managerial appointments and that came to a head this week with more key players departing.

Yet, the decision to prevent winger Daniel James move to Leeds, believed to be down to Jenkins, shows just how bad things are high-up at Swansea.

So, whilst Jenkins departure is good news to many Swans supporters, the reality is they are still a club in major crisis.

The American owners do not seem to care about backing Potter or supporting a promotion push and it's extremely hard to see how they can move forward.

Potter has had to contend with losing many experienced and influential players, whilst he has essentially promoted youth to replace them, so he is doing an outstanding job that is masking the real issues.

Over the past week we've had a clear insight into the chaos at Swansea - and the supporters have every right to be worried.
