The Swans are currently defying the odds near the play-off places during their first season in the Championship, and Martinez believes the Premier League is not beyond them.[LNB]He told the Western Mail: "The reality is that we are in a position where we can dream about the play-offs. It's a position where we rely on our fans to ensure we are as strong as possible at home and, if we do that, we could get there.[LNB]"We are going into the last third of the season and we always said we need to get as many points as we could by this stage so we could assess what our aim should be.[LNB]"We have 15 games to go and, when the target is reassessed, it has to be the play-offs. It's the first time I have said that, but it's just because we are starting the last third of the campaign.[LNB]"We have 15 games, including seven massive finals at home, and this is the time to get together as a club - the board, the staff, the players and especially the fans, and make sure we have the best possible chance to get three points in every game we play for the rest of the season. [LNB]"That's the reality. We worked very, very hard to get in this position and everyone should be proud, but every game is going to be vital."[LNB][LNB]
