Wigan boss Martinez: Scotland will get goals at Prem level

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Sat, 11/07/2009 - 06:17

Wigan Athletic boss Roberto Martinez has no doubts that Jason Scotland is Premiership class.

It is a different story to last season when the 30-year-old contributed 24 in all competitions for Swansea.

Martinez, however, believes there is more to Scotland's game than goals having worked with the player in the Championship.

Martinez said: "Jason has a great belief and a great arrogance in his play, certainly since we defeated Chelsea.

"He may be waiting to score but he is contributing to the team in a big way. It is a sign of a good striker when you give a lot to your team without getting goals.

"His overall play is exceptional in that respect. I am delighted with him and all the players who have had to adjust to the Premier League."
