Redmond can deliver for managers who dare

Show/hide article…

Back-to-back goals highlight the improving form of Nathan Redmond (£5.9m), indicating he can be Southampton’s key weapon in the Gameweek 10 test against Chelsea.

After scoring only once in the first seven fixtures, Redmond’s Fantasy Premier League price dropped below his initial value of £6.0m.

The summer signing from Norwich City grabbed Southampton’s second goal in a 3-1 home win over Burnley in Gameweek 8 and followed it with the opener against Manchester City last weekend.

On both occasions, he collected two bonus points and returned a nine-point haul.

Listed as a midfielder in FPL after being used as a winger throughout his career, Redmond has benefitted from a role up front under Claude Puel.

When assessed against his numbers from 2015/16 at Norwich, Redmond has improved considerably.

His touches in the box (up from 2.4 to 5.9), goal attempts (1.5 to 3.1), shots inside the penalty area (0.8 to 2.4) and efforts on target (0.5 to 1.2) are all on the rise.

Over the first nine Gameweeks, Redmond has registered 22 attempts inside the penalty area, with only Arsenal’s Theo Walcott (£8.1m; 21.9% ownership), with 25 managing more from midfield.

Redmond’s tally of 11 attempts on target has been bettered by only four FPL midfielders, with popular targets such as Philippe Coutinho (£8.4m; 36.8%) and Alexis Sanchez (£11.3m; 23.8%) registering 12 apiece.

Furthermore, his 2.3 key passes per appearance is again superior to an average of 1.3 in the previous campaign, while his total of 21 chances created is identical to Coutinho’s.

In spite of his favourable price, Redmond has been acquired by just over 16,000 FPL managers heading into the weekend and is part of 6.4% of squads.

Sunday’s visit of Chelsea will certainly present a big obstacle for Southampton. Chelsea have kept a clean sheet in three successive Gameweeks since a move to a 3-4-3 formation.

But with Puel continuing to manage the pitch time of Charlie Austin (£6.6m) and Dusan Tadic (£7.2m), it could be Redmond, who has played all but three minutes of this campaign, who poses the greatest threat of all to the visitors’ newly resilient rearguard.

Restricted view seats available for Inter

Show/hide article…

Due to the height of the advertising boards in place for European games, the view of the playing surface will be impaired for any supporters in these seats.

Because of this, all seats carry a £5 discount on the usual price, meaning prices are as follows:

£15.00 for Adults

£10.00 for 18-21 year-olds and Over-65s

£5.00 for Under-18s

Please be aware, the height of the advertising boards mean small children will struggle to see any of the pitch if they are sat in these seats.

Visit tickets.saintsfc.co.uk to secure your seat, call the Ticket Office on 02381 780 780 or visit the St Mary’s Ticket Office at St Mary’s.

Puel: Youngsters will get a chance

Show/hide article…

Saints host the Black Cats, at St Mary’s, with a place in the quarter-finals of the competition on the line.

Both sides are expected to make changes for the match, and Puel believes it will be a good chance for a few young players to show him their potential.

"We have injuries to Ryan Bertrand, Targett, Soares, Jérémy Pied and, after that, all the squad is available, but some players will stay at the training ground to recover and to give chances for other players and younger players to start in the team,” said Puel.

“Playing every three days is very hard, of course, for the squad, but it will be interesting, because it can develop the players and we can take pleasure to play all these games.”

Under-23s regular Jake Hesketh, who started and scored in the third-round win over Crystal Palace will not be able to play, though, as he is injured.

“Jake Hesketh also is for the moment injured,” said Puel. “It will not be possible for him to stay with the group for this game.”
