Steve Cooper says Crystal Palace's interest in considering him for their soon-to-be-vacant managerial role will not distract from Swansea's play-off push as they aim to reach the Premier League. Addressing the Palace speculation, Cooper said: "It's not a week for any individual topics or conversations. 0:48 Ahead of his final home match as Crystal Palace manager, Roy Hodgson is given a guard of honour by both the Crystal Palace and Arsenal teams"I'm in that bubble like everyone else at the moment and just focusing on that. Swansea beat Brentford 1-0 in their play-off semi-final first leg last season, only to be knocked out after a 3-1 defeat in west London. "Some of it's different, some of it's the same," Cooper said, reflecting on the play-off semi-finals Swansea have played under his charge.
