Making it a hat-trick of summer signings, Tom Ince is the third key-player. The former Derby and Blackpool player is well renown and can deliver the goods on his day.

Though he has not set the Premier League a light on his move to The Terriers. Ince should not be underestimated despite one assist so far this campaign. The wide-man had some impressive stints in the Championship, but yet to find his feet in England’s top division.

However, on a personal note, it could be anytime that he musters up the performance that announces his arrival. Under the guidance of his father Paul Ince, Tom has steadily improved his game through first team football.

His greatest assets are his dribbling and technique, he could be quite the handful to mark. Likewise, as mentioned before, cutting off his supply to Belgian striker Depoitre will be important to prevent defeat.

With both of the Saints’ first-choice full-backs potentially out with injuries, Ince could have a field down the wing.
