Southampton legend Matt Le Tissier has urged fans not to panic.
Fans may be reeling from the imminent departure of Rickie Lambert just days after manager Mauricio Pochettino walked out of the club, but once a new boss comes in, Le Tissier believes things will start to look a lot more positive.
Le Tissier told the Daily Echo: "It's paramount we get a manager in and then we can start hearing about players coming in rather than going out. "At the moment it does feel a bit like hit, after hit, after hit, but let's not forget, it is only one player we've lost.
"Once we get someone in as manager, it should calm down. "A new manager can come in and start looking at bringing players in and that will allay people's fears."
Some Saints fans are worried that losing Lambert has shown the board to be naive but Le Tissier does not see what all the fuss is about.
"Players leave for good money all the time and then you go out and sign new ones. That's what happens, so I don't see why people are so worried."
