Adkins Under Shear Pressure

The constant speculation over the future of Southampton boss Nigel Adkins isn't abating anytime soon.

Following another dfeat, this time in the League Cup to Leeds, Adkins willingly accepted all blame, 'I take full responsibility'.

As pressure mounts on Adkins it looks like The Daily Mail see former Saints striker Alan Shearer as a potential replacement.

The only managerial experience Shearer has is of relegation with Newcastle, surely he has a point to prove in the Premier League.
