Martin ‘learning all the time’ as Southampton adapt to Premier League

Saints set aside their miserable Premier League form — just a single point from nine games — to edge into the League Cup quarter-finals with Tuesday’s last-gasp 3-2 win over Championship club Stoke.

Progression in the cup followed a positive performance in Saturday’s narrow 1-0 loss at champions Manchester City, which prompted praise from rival boss Pep Guardiola.
