​Swansea striker Bony apologises to fans after Burnley loss

Swansea striker Wilfried Bony has apologised to fans of the club after they fell 2-0 at the hands of Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday.

First-half goals from Jack Cork and Ashley Barnes consigned Paul Clement's side to their eighth straight defeat.

Bony, who was making his first team return from a hamstring injury appealed to his club's supporters, encouraging them to stick with the club through this difficult moment.

"Our position is not good at the moment so we need to stay together, fight and learn from our mistakes from Saturday," Bony told club's website.

"All I can say is that we are very sorry for what happened on Saturday. I promise we will do our best next week.

"We know at the moment the fans are unhappy. We are too.

"We need their support to lift us for the next game. It won't be easy against Bournemouth, but their support is going to be crucial for us in a difficult moment."
