Martinez lauds McAleny's impact in friendly win
by Lyndon Lloyd | 11/07/2015
Roberto Martinez singled Conor McAleny out for particular praise after the crucial role he played in today's 4-0 win at Swindon.
The 22-year-old assisted in the first three goals as Everton took a 3-0 second-half lead in their first friendly of the summer thanks to a brace from Kevin Mirallas and a strike by Romelu Lukaku before firing home the fourth himself from just inside the area.
McAleny, who spent most of last season on loan in the Championship with Cardiff City where he scored two goals in eight appearances, is hoping to play his way into Martinez's plans for the new season and he got off to the perfect start at the County Ground.
The Whiston-born forward has suffered his share of injuries at an important stage of his career but his manager was pleased with what he saw today.
“It was very important for Conor to get the pre-season work done injury-free," Martinez told evertinfc.com. "When you are young and your body is still developing, you can pick up little niggles and injuries which is frustrating for everyone not just for Conor.
“Now, he has had a very good run of work and we are hoping he can stay fit because he's got really good low balance. He can turn at pace, he's very strong and his finishing has real quality.
“We hope he can push on now and complete pre-season injury-free.”
Martinez took satisfaction from the friendly as a whole, the first and only 11-v-11 game before the squad jets off to Singapore tomorrow for the Barclays Asia Trophy.
“We've done a lot of volume work at Finch Farm this week and it has been great to see the attitude of the players," Martinez continued.
“It doesn't matter who you are playing against, to get a clean sheet shows the concentration levels were very, very good and from a physical point of view, I thought it was a perfect workout.”

He's a outstanding player with an amazing prospect. Someone actually had a go at me a few weeks back for valuing him at £2m and not the 500k that they thought we could get him for
