Southampton caretaker boss Davis: Tough seeing Lloris perform so well

Southampton caretaker boss Kelvin Davis admits he was jealous watching Hugo Lloris in action for Tottenham's win on Wednesday night.

Davis was overseeing first-team matters while new boss Ralph Hasenhuttl watched on from the stands.

He said: "Goals change games, we probably switched off at key moments and at the other end you've got a world class goalkeeper pulling off fantastic saves - I was envious.

"When you're 3-0 down against Spurs you're not expecting much from the game.

"The lads were fantastic at sticking to our game plan and played as a team, which is what I asked them to do. There was a lot to be satisfied with although we didn't take anything from the game."
