Nigel Adkins praises Adam Lallana after he scores the winner in Southampton’s Carling Cup triumph over Preston.

Southampton manager Nigel Adkins hailed the talents of Adam Lallana after the winger netted the winner in their 2-1 Carling Cup third-round victory over Preston.

The former England Under-21s international scored just 90 seconds after coming on after Adam Barton had cancelled out Jos Hooiveld's opener for the Saints at St. Mary’s.

"He is a class act and scored a great goal when the game was evenly poised. It was a great impact from a very talented player," said Adkins.

"It's a valuable victory. We were able to start ten different players and utilise our squad depth.

"We've got a tough week coming up with Burnley, Cardiff and Watford but there is a good unity in the squad and a growing competition for starting places, which is only a good thing to have."

Southampton currently top the Championship after picking up 18 points from their opening seven matches.
