Swansea City boss Luke Williams admits they were poor for their FA Cup defeat at Bournemouth.

The Cherries thrashed Swansea 5-0 in Thursday's Fourth Round tie. Lloyd Kelly, Alex Scott, Luis Sinisterra, David Brooks and Dominic Solanke all struck for the Cherries.

Williams later said: "It was a horrible night for us.

"I apologised to the players as I tried to set up the team to cause a problem for the opposition. Because it's a cup game we have to find a way to win the game.

"I got the balance wrong, too many players in advanced positions and in the turnover too few players to stem the attack and the opposition were very good.

"It was very difficult to get near their goal and in the second half we tried to limit the damage because the scoreline was too heavy. We were playing against an outstanding team."
