Southampton will give Tino Livramento all the support he needs to return 'bigger, better and stronger', says James Ward-Prowse, after youngster's horror knee injury at Brighton left him requiring oxygen

James Ward-Prowse says Southampton's players will give Tino Livramento all the support required to return 'bigger, better and stronger' from his horror knee injury.

England U21 defender Livramento received oxygen and was carried off on a stretcher after collapsing to the ground in the first half of Sunday's 2-2 Premier League draw at Brighton.

Saints are still waiting to discover the full extent of the problem, which manager Ralph Hasenhuttl described as appearing 'very, very serious'.

Captain Ward-Prowse salvaged a point with a long-range double after the visitors had fallen 2-0 behind at the Amex Stadium and dedicated the equaliser to his stricken team-mate by making a T sign with his fingers.
