We Can Win As Favourites

Mauricio Pochettino has said Southampton can win as favourites in a game and not just as the underdog as has been suggested.

Speaking to saintsfc the manager refuted suggestions that we can’t play with the same tempo in every game given our recent run of results.

‘I don’t fully agree with that. If you look at the victories we got against Manchester City and Liverpool it might look like we raise our game against them, but I don’t think that is the case because we played very well against Wigan and Norwich, but weren’t lucky enough to get the three points. We are just really focused on playing well on Saturday and getting three points and our maximum effort has to go into winning that game.’

Pochettino also added that everybody bar Gaston Ramirez has now returned to Southampton and there are no nagging injury concerns.
