Schneiderlin warns Southampton fans tougher challenges ahead

Morgan Schneiderlin has warned Southampton fans not to get carried away with their flying start.

The France midfielder says their toughest tests are still to come.

He said: "It's a surprise to have got off to the best ever start in the league after going through so many changes in the summer.

"The coaching staff changed, a lot of players left so of course it's great for us to be in such a good position after five games, but it's only five games of a long season and we need to keep going.

"We had a very good start last year as well but it was difficult after going through a hard time in December and after that it was difficult to get back up the league. We're going to try to be stronger in that period."
