​Redmond insists Southampton unfazed by Chelsea draw | OneFootball

Southampton star Nathan Redmond is not concerned about drawing Chelsea in the Carabao Cup.

The Saints have a tough ask if they are to progress to the quarter-finals of the competition.

But Redmond knows that Southampton have equipped themselves well against Chelsea under manager Ralph Hasenhuttl.

Their last three matches at Stamford Bridge involved two draws and a Southampton win.

Redmond said, per the Daily Echo: "At some point, you have to play a few of the big boys.

"Last time we played against them, at home, we played pretty well to be honest. They are European champions, respectfully, so it is going to be a good test.

"As I said before, if you play any team in the league compared to a cup, it is a completely different game. You look at from when United played West Ham the other day, it was a completely different result.

"Having that balance to be able to chop and change the squads does make cup games that little bit more often."
