Bob Bradley is hoping Swansea's players will follow his example and come out fighting against fellow strugglers Sunderland on Saturday.
The American is already facing up to the pressure of life in the Premier League, having won only one game since he took over from Francesco Guidolin on October 3.
He finds himself favourite with the bookmakers to be the next Premier League manager to be sacked and defeat against Sunderland would do little to improve his situation.
The Swans go into their 15th game of the season with only nine points on the board, two adrift of David Moyes' side ahead of the clash at the Liberty Stadium.
Bradley said: "I am going to keep fighting. That's how I work.
"If I am telling the players they have to look adversity in the eye and have some courage, then I have got to do that too.
"Results are hard to come by when you take over a team who have been struggling, and results when you do that in the Premier League are even harder to come by.
"But that's what I signed up for when I took the job. I knew when I came in this was going to be a big test and it still is, but that's no problem.
"We have to turn it around. We have to step on the field to play against a team who are around us in the table and look to win.
"When you go into a big game like this - in a way a cup final for us - you have got to make sure you have a group of guys who will be ready for that kind of challenge. For sure this feels like the biggest game since I came in."
