Leon Britton: 'No surprise at Roberto Martinez success'

Swansea City midfielder Leon Britton admits that no-one is surprised at the club about the success Roberto Martinez is having at Everton, four years after leaving the Swans.

Swansea City midfielder Leon Britton has admitted that it is no "surprise" to anyone at the club that Robert Martinez is enjoying success at Everton.

Martinez managed the Swans for two seasons from 2007 to 2009 and guided them to the Championship and established them as promotion contenders before leaving for Wigan Athletic.

Britton told the club's official website: "They've had a great start to the season. Roberto's come in, and it seems as though they have just hit the ground running.

"They've got a good squad there, but Roberto has come in and put his own stamp on things. He has his own ideas – which we know about here – about how he wants his team to play.

"Watching them recently, they've been playing really well, but it's not a surprise to anyone here at Swansea."

Swansea face Everton at the Liberty Stadium on Sunday.
