Southampton's Mauricio Pochettino "frustrated" with stalemate

Mauricio Pochettino says that he is happy with Southampton's performance against West Ham United.

Southampton manager Mauricio Pochettino has said that his team should have beaten West Ham United in this afternoon's Premier League meeting at St Mary's.

Finnish goalkeeper Jussi Jaaskelainen made a string of impressive saves on his way to a second clean sheet of the season - one which earned the Hammers a share of the spoils on the South Coast.

"We created the better chances, we were much closer than they were to actually getting a victory," the 41-year-old told Sky Sports News. "But in football, it is not just about creating chances, you need to be make them into goals.

"We weren't able to do it and we are frustrated by that. I am pleased with all of my players - they all played well and put in a great effort. On the one hand, I am a bit frustrated because we didn't get the three points but I'm pleased, as they all played well."

Southampton travel to Anfield to take on Liverpool next Saturday.
