Southampton captain Jose Fonte has vowed to lead his side back into their early-season form, starting with a victory on Saturday against his former club and manager Alan Pardew, at Crystal Palace.
The Saints are currently going through a bad patch in their campaign, with four games without a win and three losses in their last four, but skipper Fonte is eyeing an improvement in their next match.
First of all we have to work hard and work hard for each-other and our quality will take care of the rest.
Fonte was annoyed at how he was kept out of Saints’ 6-1 pasting from Liverpool in the Capital One Cup a fortnight ago, but has spoke of how his knee injury was not one that would keep him out for a while due to his passion and love of playing for the side.
The fact that I was on the pitch (against Villa) after I couldn’t run on Wednesday and on Thursday I struggled to run at more than 50 per cent , it tells you how I take it.
Southampton will be looking to better their previous performances at Selhurst Park on Saturday as they hope to climb out of the bottom half.
