Southampton started the season in excellent form, but have struggled in defeats to Manchester City, Arsenal and Manchester United, which continued with a 1-0 loss to Burnley on Saturday.

Despite enjoying the majority of good chances in the game, Southampton could not capitalize, leaving Ronald Koeman frustrated.

Koeman told BBC Sport: "Again, [it’s] the same story as last Monday against Manchester United. We had more chances, missed a penalty and one of our mistakes ended in 1-0.

"In my opinion, football is not that difficult but you can make it difficult.

"The difference between when we were winning games and are now losing them is a small detail like not punishing the opponent in a key moment like today. Also, doing more defensive mistakes.

"After a difficult start to the game, little by little we controlled the game. The story is to kill the game and we didn't. We paid for that.

"Everyone can make mistakes but too many goals in the last few games are from our own mistakes. We had enough chances to score but we didn't."
