Wigan Athletic lost against Milwall in their latest Championship match and the head coach of Wigan went on saying that in order for his club and players to snatch a higher spot in the league they will need to ‘show respect’ to their opponents.
“Every time we play a team in the top 10, we raise our standard. We can compete against anybody in this league, but we have lost to Doncaster and Huddersfield’’.
“That is no disrespect to anybody in this league. We have to realize that, in this league, you have to show everybody respect and that is the next learning curve for my players. If we continue to do that until the end of the season, we will definitely be in the play-offs. With the squad we have and the spirit we have created, anything can happen.” Uwe Rosler said.
Uwe Rosler also praised the goalkeepers he has at his disposal and according to him; Wigan Athletic has the strongest goalkeeping department in the entire league.
“To cement his place, after Scott came back from injury and with Lee Nicholls being available every training session, shows the level of performance Ali has delivered since I walked through the door. Ali took his chance and I think it would have been unfair to Ali and sent the wrong signals to the squad, when we talk about fair competition, to take Ali out’’.
“I am very happy with the goalkeepers. I think I probably have the strongest goalkeeping department in the league with three top goalkeepers. It speaks volumes that Ali has cemented his place as number one.” Rosler added on.
Wigan Athletic still has 5 matches left to be played in the Championship league before the season comes to a conclusion but they are well on their way of finishing on a top 5 spot.
