New Southampton boss Jones confident helping Adams reach potential

New Southampton boss Nathan Jones is looking forward to working with Che Adams.

Jones watched Adams score his sixth goal of the season but also miss a couple of good chances in the 3-1 defeat at Liverpool which kept Saints in the relegation zone.

"Every striker who I have worked with scores goals at whatever level," said Jones, who was hired from Luton Town last week to replace Ralph Hasenhuttl.

"I want us to be a real fluent attacking side that is hard-working and wants to entertain.

"Fans can't get behind a team that is easy to beat and concedes three goals every week."
