Harry Lewis

Dundee United – Seven appearances

Having only conceded five goals in his first seven games, Harry Lewis has certainly had a positive early impact at Dundee United. He has kept two clean sheets in that time, and only conceded more than one goal on a single occasion.

The highlight of his time at Tannadice so far has been his penalty shootout heroics against arch-rivals Dundee. After making a string of excellent second half saves to keep his team in the match, Lewis stopped two penalties to ensure city bragging rights.

Lewis is said to be delighted to have secured the first team keeper spot, and is fully focused on getting the team back into the Premier League.

Southampton fans will be pleased to see the 19-year-old prospect making a great start to competitive football, and will be hoping this season is the next step towards developing Lewis into a future top-level keeper.
