The Saints finally win a home game!

It might be considered something of a cliché to suggest that Southampton pulled off an early Christmas miracle. In lieu of that, we’ll simply say that the team pulled out all the stops to claim only their second victory of the Premier League campaign.

Ralph Hasenhüttl’s appointment to the club came upon us all rather suddenly and his impact on the squad has been almost as swift.

So, for only the second time this Premier League season, sit back, relax, and enjoy the takeaways from the 3-2 win over Arsenal.
