There was a tense moment in the Swansea City press room on Tuesday night.
After another dismal defeat at the hands of Stoke City, which was greeted with boos at full-time, it was suggested by one journalist that Russell Martin's players had lost confidence, run out of steam and, ultimately, had perhaps started to lose faith in his methods.
The Swans boss hit back, labelling it a "lazy assessment" that was disrespectful to the hard work the players were putting in behind the scenes.
