Southampton will stand by manager Ralph Hasenhuttl - despite Friday's 9-0 humiliation by Leicester City.

The Daily Echo says management plan to stick by their Austrian boss in the wake of the record 9-0 loss to Leicester at St Mary's contrary to press reports speculating that he will soon be dismissed.

Saints are keen for stability and feel that appointing a fifth manager in little more than two years is not the way to achieve it.

Instead, Hasenhuttl will be given the chance to pick up the team and try and revive them ahead of a double header at Manchester City.
