Patchy Wigan trouble boss

Sun, 01 Nov 13:47:44 2009

Wigan's inconsistency is of concern to manager Roberto Martinez after they lost 4-0 at Portsmouth.

Their performance against Pompey was far removed from recent victories over Chelsea and away at Burnley.

"There are reasons for that," said Martinez. "We are a new group with a different philosophy of playing. Sometimes you need to get through these painful lessons to learn.

"We went to Arsenal and could not be ourselves and then we beat Chelsea. The important thing is we learn from painful lessons and become a stronger and better team. That is the challenge."

  1. I know nothing about footy - but wouldnt it be logical­ to play Erik Edmund if he is fit (to replace figgy) ,­ to keep the overall shape of the newly formed team­ structure...........?
