Wigan Athletic boss, Roberto Martinez, believes that his
side are finally getting full value for their performances, following four wins
in their last five games.
The Latics have hit form at just the right time of the
season and, arguably, during their toughest run of the campaign, to pull clear
of the relegation zone.
Wigan were bottom of the pile only a month ago, but
first-ever victories at Liverpool and Arsenal, and a maiden win over Manchester
United, have turned their season around. The only blot on their copybook was a
controversial 2-1 defeat at Chelsea.
Martinez admitted Wigan were struggling for confidence while
they were rock bottom.
"We had performances - to mention a few: Norwich,
Aston Villa and West Brom - where we played really, really well but didn't
get the points", he said.
"That was because of the position we had in the table
and the connotations that affect our final-third play – that stops you from
scoring goals and getting points."
The shock 2-1 victory at Anfield proved to be a watershed in
Wigan’s season, and Martinez believes they have gone "into a different
dimension" since the famous win.
"Probably the most pleasing aspect is that we deserved
the points. That's credit to the players and how hard they've been working
under the circumstances – with the real need of points and being in that
position in the table", he added.
Wigan’s incredible run of results appears to have ensured
another season in the Premier League. Martinez’s side sit 16th, five points
clear of safety with four games remaining, though third-bottom Bolton Wanderers
have two games in hand.
