Edman staying grounded after Wigan comeback

Erik Edman is delighted to have made his comeback for Wigan Athletic.

But the Swedish fullback is keeping his feet firmly on the ground after making his long-awaited return to the first-team fold against Fulham.

Edman told the Wigan Observer: "I still think Maynor is the first-choice left-back.

"He's been doing so well over the last couple of seasons. Sunday was obviously my first game under the new manager, and there have been a lot of changes in the way we play.

"We're still in the transition period he speaks of, and you have to give things time - especially when you have a lot of new players coming in, and a new style to adapt to.

"But, having said that, I still want to do as well as possible when I'm given the chance."
