a look into how our pressing game, which earned a victory over an albeit woeful city, was countered in quick successions by both newcastle and qpr.

 

It highlighted another element of Southampton's game: with their midfield high up the pitch and their full-backs ordered to attack, their central defenders can be dragged wider which, in turn, can create room in the centre.

 

The final statistics showed that Southampton had two-thirds of possession, three times as many shots and more than twice as many on target.
