Wigan went to Arsenal's Emirates ground in mid-April last season and won during a remarkable run of seven victories in their final nine matches.

"In football and in life you need to have pictures of what you want to achieve, and in football it is very difficult to create a vision when you've never achieved that," said Martinez.
