Southampton boss Adkins concerned over Fonte injury

Southampton boss Nigel Adkins admits concern over Jose Fonte's injury in yesterday's FA Cup defeat to Chelsea.

The Portuguese left St Mary's on crutches and in a leg brace with what Adkins confirmed was a knee injury.

"It is not good when somebody gets stretchered off," he said. "He is being assessed now so I don't know the extent of the damage.

"It is a knee injury he has picked up but I don't know what yet."
