Swansea boss Monk blasts Cardiff's Solskjaer over De Guzman claims

Swansea City boss Garry Monk has attacked Cardiff City rival Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Monk has lashed out at Solskjaer for claiming his player got Craig Bellamy banned, blasting: 'Look after your own players before criticising mine'.

Monk fumed to WalesOnline: "I saw Ole answering a question saying my man Jon de Guzman made a meal of it.

"When you receive an elbow in the back of the head and go down normally, I don't see how that's an over-reaction.

"I would have more concerns about the 35 minute when they had a corner and one of my players, Wayne Routledge, gets headbutted and punched in the face by Kim.

"If anything I would be more concerned about something like that than saying one of my players is play-acting.

"If you look at Wayne, he is headbutted and punched and he stays on his feet. He doesn't make a meal of it.

"I think Ole needs to look at his own players before he starts looking at mine."
