Mauricio Pochettino critical of Southampton display

Southampton manager Mauricio Pochettino has criticised his team's performance during their 3-0 defeat to home to West Bromwich Albion in the Premier League.

The Saints were comfortably beaten at St Mary's Stadium on Saturday as their six-match unbeaten run was ended by the Baggies.

"From my point of view we just didn't start in the game," Pochettino told Sky Sports News.

"We didn't feel comfortable, especially when we conceded the first goal in the sixth minute.

"Then we became a bit fearful of their attacking strikers, who were quite fast, strong and physically fit."

Southampton finished the game with nine men after Gaston Ramirez and Danny Fox were both sent off.
