(Reuters) - Southampton have only kicked into gear in the second half of their two Premier League matches this season and the club must show more intent from the first whistle, defender Oriol Romeu has said.

Southampton were held to a goalless draw by Burnley in their season opener but were beaten 2-1 by Everton last weekend when they were two down with half an hour played but improved after the break and scored through Danny Ings.
