Southampton striker Stern John insists he will not buckle under pressure in Monday's vital Championship clash with West Bromwich Albion.The relegation-battling Saints travel to The Hawthorns as major underdogs but the 17-goal frontman is confident he can boost his side's survival chances by taking the chances that come his way.

He told club's official website: "I have played under pressure all my career so it does not bother me. I just need to compose myself, relax and everything will fall into place.

"Every time I step onto a pitch I feel like I will score. I will always get a chance at some stage in the game, it is a question of waiting for it and making it count.

"I love scoring goals so I don't feel under any real pressure. I will play my normal game and try my best to score."
