Adkins to keep it simple

Southampton manager Nigel Adkins has no intention of overhauling his squad following promotion to the Barclays Premier League.

Saints secured an estimated £90million windfall when they beat Coventry 4-0 on Saturday to secure their return to the top flight after seven years. Adkins admits he will need to add to his squad but insists it will be a case of evolution, not revolution. "You are always looking to evolve the group of players and I think there needs to be that steady progression," he told Saints' website. "We have some good football players here already, but like everybody we will look to bring some more in over the summer."
