Andy Monkhouse had put the Pools in front but two goals from the inspired Adam Lallana and one from Rickie Lambert consigned the Pools to their fourth home loss of the season on a rotten night in the north east.[LNB]"In the first half we played as well as we have done," Turner said. "There was a lot of positives from it.[LNB]"We could have scored more than one, got some good crosses in, got behind them and attacked Southampton - exactly what we are trying to do here.[LNB]"We pegged them back, the crowd stayed with us, we put them under pressure. They couldn't handle James Brown, Denis (Behan) was back to his best. I hate losing games, but the third one killed it for us.[LNB]"I've no blame to anyone. There was a lot of positives. There was a lot of quality in their team, look at the boy who scored two - he's got 11 for the season."[LNB][LNB]
