McCarthy insists Southampton calm about slow start

Alex McCarthy insists nobody at Southampton is worried about their slow start to the Premier League season.

Ralph Hasenhuttl's side have picked up three draws from their opening four Premier League games, and they will face Manchester City this Saturday.

Saints goalkeeper McCarthy told the Daily Echo: "It's obviously massive to get that first win but I wouldn't say anyone is panicking at the moment.

"We knew Saturday was going to be a tough game. There's lots of positives we can take from that game and it's going to be a tough game (against Man City) next weekend.

"But I think if we apply ourselves like we did on Saturday, we give ourselves a good chance."
