Southampton 1-2 Crystal Palace: Three key players
By Marc Walker
Jeremy Pied
Pied was one of the very few Saints players who had a decent game.
He managed to provide some much needed width for his team on the right, and tired to carry the ball forward when he could.
He also produced the low cross for Shane Long to fire home the game’s opening goal.
Pied has been unlucky to miss out on a more regular starting place in Cedric’s continued absence, but has looked more than capable when called upon.
