Swansea City vs. Everton: Buoyant Martinez praises squad depth ahead of Liberty return

Everton disposed of champions Chelsea last time out, and now face a Swansea City side out to avenge a poor showing at Watford.

Roberto Martinez takes an Everton side buoyed by victory over Premier League champions Chelsea to former club Swansea City on Saturday and is convinced he has a squad ready for success.

Steven Naismith came off the bench to score a perfect hat-trick as Everton put Jose Mourinho's men to the sword at Goodison Park last weekend in a 3-1 triumph.

The task for Everton now is to replicate that fine performance at the Liberty Stadium against a club Martinez captained as a player and managed between 2007 and 2009.
