Tom Cairney

Cairney, also linked with Saints back in the summer, hasn’t yet replicated the form he reached last season when Fulham made a late push into the play-offs this campaign.

Having scored just one goal and registering two assists, the Scotland international will surely be looking to contribute more upfront for his team but knee issues have reduced the amount of game time he’s received.

However, the 26-year-old is technically gifted and could always start a dangerous attack when Saints visit Craven Cottage on Saturday.
