Martinez says he has full confidence in Swansea's squad
|
Manager Roberto Martinez says League One leaders Swansea will put defeat against Millwall aside when they host Tranmere at the Liberty on Tuesday.
His side saw their lead cut to eight points on the weekend, Friday's loss to the Lions ending 18 games unbeaten.
But Martinez says that his team have the mental strength to recover.
"We've learnt from previous knocks this season and this is no different, but we need the fans behind us for the final push," the Spaniard told BBC Sport.
"The supporters have been fantastic since the defeat, they've seen the way that the club is progressing and they understand that there will be blips.

"It was a good performance on Friday, despite the defeat, so that means there are positives.
"The players are anxious to get back onto the pitch as soon as possible, they're a young, motivated squad of winners - that makes my job easy."
Martinez expects a formidable challenge from play-off chasing Tranmere, despite the fact that Rovers have lost their last two league games.
"Tranmere have been really strong in the second half of the season and I expect them in the top six at the end of it," said Martinez.
"They are also bouncing back and will be motivated after two defeats, there's a lot of experience in their side.
"It's a great challenge and I'm looking forward to an open and entertaining game."
