'I'm happy to go on' - Eckert

Interim Southampton boss Tonda Eckert says he is happy to continue in charge of the Saints after the impressive 3-0 win over Leicester City on Tuesday night.

The 32-year-old has now won all four games since taking over from sacked manager Will Still on 2 November, lifting Southampton from 21st in the Championship up to 11th, just two points off the play-off spots.

"I'm very pleased, we knew that we needed to invest a lot today for a clean sheet because obviously there's a lot of quality on the other side of the pitch and we managed that quite well," Eckert told BBC Sport.

"I think there was one situation early on in the game after a corner when the ball dropped inside the box and I feel that was the only real moment that they had inside the box and being able to say that over 90 minutes I think is a compliment to the boys.

"I'm happy to go on, to go into another game on Saturday, it's going to be a big challenge coming up and we need to make sure that we carry on the momentum.

"I want to go to Millwall and win another game on Saturday. That's what it is about. I don't look too far ahead. It's a big game coming and that's all I focus on."
