Southampton boss Ronald Koeman is delighted with the form of Morgan Schneiderlin.

Saints had to fight tooth-and-nail to keep hold of the Frenchman in the summer.

"He is a fantastic midfield player, a clever player, always a good feel on the pitch, he sees the solution in ball possession moments," said Koeman. "He's aggressive in his tackling, sometimes a bit too much, because he gets too many yellow cards in my opinion.

"That he has to change and, if he keeps the rest, then he's a fantastic player."
