Armstrong pledges Saints focus
Southampton midfielder Stuart Armstrong says he and his team-mates will continue to focus on their own tasks as the Saints battle to preserve their Premier League status.
The South Coast outfit are currently just two points clear of the bottom three and face a massive game on Saturday, when they welcome Cardiff City to St Mary's.
We can only play our own game and see what happens.

The Bluebirds occupy the final relegation spot as things stand, but would move above the Saints with a victory at the weekend.
And Cardiff will head South boosted by the knowledge that the meeting of the two side at the Cardiff City Stadium earlier this season finished 1-0 to the hosts, with Callum Paterson netting the only goal of the game.
Armstrong told the Daily Echo: "We like to focus on ourselves and take each game as it comes, as boring as that sounds, because that's the way we like to operate.
"We are looking forward to the next game to make sure we can take as many points as possible.
"It's a big team and a big game, especially when you play someone close to you in the table and we will be looking to make amends for the last time we played them.
"We look to each game as a different game and it will be different this time to how it was the last time we played them. We can only play our own game and see what happens."
Southampton are 8/11 to claim victory on Saturday, with the draw priced at 13/5, while the Saints are 1/16 not to be relegated this season.
