What was said?
But the Wales international denies he has been frustrated by his lack of playing time this season and hopes to play a more important role after helping his side record just their second leaue win in seven matches.
“The most important thing is we knew we’ve not been on a great run and it was important to get back to winning ways,” he told BBC Match of the Day.
“It’s not just about scoring. It’s about our all-round play and helping the team. I’m delighted with the goals and the assist and whatever I can do for the team.
“I’ve been happy all season. In the dressing room I feel comfortable and I’m having fun. I’m happy and I’m sure it’s showing on the pitch.
“I wasn’t upset to be substituted. There are a lot of games to come. It’s important to keep building minutes each game.”
