Martinez frustrated; penalty decision baffles Monk

  • Intro:

    Reaction from managers Roberto Martinez and Garry Monk following Everton's 0-0 draw with Swansea City in the English Premier League on Saturday (1st November)

    Script:

    "No, a combination, I think it's a combination. I think Swansea defended well, I think you need to give them credit. I think the other one is probably we got a little bit frustrated. I don't think we moved the ball quick enough, and then sometimes we didn't make the right calls, the right decisions and others a little bit of lack of fortune. We got a really good strike from Leighton Baines really late in the game that it seems is going to hit a good angle, away from (Swansea goalkeeper Lukasz) Fabianski and it hits (Everton striker) Romelu's (Lukaku) legs and you get that. We had 11 corners, sometimes they bounce, could go into one of your players, run into the defenders, you get that, that little bit of luck, but I don't think we were at our very best, on the ball, but it's a good clean sheet, we take the point and we move on towards Thursday now."

    "Well.... I didn't know you were allowed to play with two goalkeepers, to be honest with you. I thought it was a great save from Alcaraz, I thought very strong wrist, something that I'll be showing my 'keepers in training to make sure they get down well with one arm, but it was only one arm, so, we'll allow that to go. But it's a clear, clear penalty. He's actually saved the ball. It's not as if he's, struck his arm or anything, he's actually, gone to save it. So, quite strange. But, we all saw it at the time, all the players saw it, but unfortunately the ref didn't see it, so we move on."
