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.
