Swansea boss Rodgers has no grudge against Bolton goal scorer Pratley

Swansea City boss Brendan Rodgers had no complaints with Bolton Wanderers midfielder Darren Pratley scoring in their FA Cup victory.

Rodgers - Pratley's manager last season - admitted he was also happy for the player, even if he was unsure whether or not the goal should have stood.

"It was a decent header, although I felt he was probably just a fraction offside when the ball came in," Rodgers said.

"But we should never have got to that point.

"I am pleased for Darren because he is a good lad, he has decided to leave Swansea and move here and maybe it hasn't quite worked out how he wanted.

"There is no doubt that he will show he is a really good player for Bolton."
