Under-fire Southampton boss Nathan Jones has come out fighting against his critics, believing that he's "categorically the right man for the job".
The bottom-of-the-table Saints have only picked up one win from their seven Premier League games under Jones, who left Luton in November to succeed Ralph Hasenhuttl. Although their shock quarter-final victory over Manchester City in the Carabao Cup, and a much-needed win at fellow strugglers Everton, gave Southampton supporters an inkling of hope in January, fans have now turned on the Welshman - as demonstrated by their furious "get out of our club" chants during last Saturday's 3-0 loss away to Brentford.
After the crushing defeat, Jones made headlines with a series of eyebrow-raising claims; such as that he'd made 'compromises' to his style of management to benefit the Saints and that his tactical feats at Luton were some of the "best in Europe." Arsenal legend Ian Wright was among the pundits to slam his "strange" comments, but that seemingly hasn't dented the 49-year-old's confidence.
