(Reuters) - Southampton may be struggling to find their rhythm up front but manager Mauricio Pellegrino believes the team will win more than they lose playing the way they are.

Captain Maya Yoshida appeared to have rescued a point for Southampton against Stoke City on Saturday with a 75th-minute equaliser but Peter Crouch's late winner gave the home side a 2-1 victory.
