Southampton manager Mauricio Pochettino has revealed that he 'relishes' the opportunity of managing under pressure.

Pochettino's side are currently just three points clear of the relegation zone in the Premier League, but the former Espanyol boss has insisted that he is not worried by Southampton's current plight.

The 41-year-old told The Mirror: "I am relaxed, because I know my team is playing well. We are always producing more than our rivals. We have also made some mistakes but overall our outlook is correct.

"No-one said it was going to be easy. Everything takes time and you cannot wave a magic wand to be able to find solutions. I like the pressure and relish being in a pressure situation.

"I don't have any problem with anyone telling me they are upset we have not won these six games. I also think we should have won."

The Saints travel to Norwich City on Saturday.
