RICHARD Chaplow is set to end ten “frustrating” weeks against Millwall at St Mary’s tonight.
The Saints midfielder has been out with a knee injury since the end of November but has been promised a starting place by Nigel Adkins for tonight’s FA Cup fourth-round replay.
Chaplow has not played since being replaced after just seven minutes of the 2-0 defeat at Bristol City on November 26, since when Saints have picked up just 13 points out of a possible 36.
“It’s been very frustrating, something we all thought would be a short three-week thing turned out to be a four-week thing and then an eight-week thing and now we found ourselves so far down the line,” he said.
Chaplow, 27, was in outstanding form before his injury.
“I was enjoying my football, I was playing out on the right at the time and felt I was offering the team something and helping us win games.”
