Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl says the Cups are a priority this season.
Saints meet Fulham in the Carabao Cup second round tonight.
I am prioritising them in a high way this year," he said.
Last season it wasn't that bad that we didn't play in the FA Cup but this year we want to get as a far as possible.
We concentrate absolutely on this cup competition."
A second round tie away to Fulham is a tricky draw for Saints with the Cottagers having only been relegated from the top flight last season but a defiant Hasenhuttl insisted: If you want to win this cup then you must win against every opponent you get. No problem. We go there and do everything."
