Still missing Ryan Bertrand

Every day we get closer and closer to the return of Ryan Bertrand and that is a sight many Saint Fans have been waiting to see. I think it is fair to say Valery has established himself as the Right-back moving forward but since Bertrand has gone out with injury, we have been struggling to find a replacement at left-back.

Matt Targett, had some promising moments, but overall many do think he has the quality to be a full-time players in the Premier League.

Cedric, made his return to the pitch in the left-back position on Wednesday. He did fine but does not have the quality of Bertrand when he is on. Hopefully, we will see the return of our once-captain against Leicester in 9 days.
