Southampton's Dusan Tadic says that he and his teammates take full responsibility for the team's current plight.

Southampton midfielder Dusan Tadic has admitted that he and his teammates feel "ashamed" in the aftermath of their 3-0 defeat to West Ham United, a result which sent them into the Premier League's bottom three.

The Serbia international said that manager Mark Hughes is not to blame for the team's current plight, with the squad alone shouldering the responsibility.

"We feel ashamed. It's a very bad feeling and we have to take ­responsibility. It's just our ­mistakes, all of the players, it's just our fault," The Mirror quotes him as saying.

"We need to be men. We need to take ­responsibility and know what kind of situation we are in.

"I've been here when we had the best results of all time for Southampton, and personally I feel very ashamed. It's a very tough moment. When you're 2-0 down after 15 minutes in such a big game, it's not possible to win.

"I've never felt this bad before – this is one of the worst moments of my career. We have to show we are men, we have to fight. Obviously something's wrong. By this I mean ­something with me and all the players."

The West Ham defeat leaves the Saints two points from a position of safety, with seven games remaining.
