Southampton's Mauricio Pochettino "not worried" by lack of scoring

Mauricio Pochettino says that he is "not worried" by his Southampton team's failure to find the net from open play this season.

Southampton manager Mauricio Pochettino has insisted that he has no concerns over his team's failure to score from open play.

The Argentine boss recently challenged Rickie Lambert to score more goals, but the fact that the Saints have not scored from open play for 393 minutes is not an issue.

"I'm not worried about it," Pochettino told BBC Radio Solent. "My main concern is that the team keeps growing and the players keep understanding each other."

Southampton will take on league leaders Liverpool at Anfield tomorrow afternoon.
