"It was only six months ago that we had people in the crowd asking for him to get the sack, don't forget that," Whelan told Wigan Evening Post. "He's done a first class job since the day he arrived.
"It upsets you and I would have gone with Roberto, no question. I think the people have now realised how good a manager he is."
