Motivating Southampton's players has become harder than ever with relegation from the Premier League a near certainty but the team will fight until the very last second, manager Ruben Selles said on Friday.
But Southampton have not won a game since they beat Leicester City in the first week of March, going on a 10-match winless run, and even victory over Fulham might just be delaying the inevitable with three rounds left. "When a club gets relegated, it is a real issue for the city, the club, the players, the staff and workers. But the club has everything to bounce back straight away and be back the year after," he said.However, Selles admitted it would be tough to retain most of the players with other Premier League clubs swooping in for their best talents.
"It's not been for me to decide but I would like to carry on in the Championship and bounce back to the Premier League the year after," he said.
