Sofiane Boufal

The Moroccan was given second chance to prove himself at the club and he has seemed to fully embrace this chance and wants to prove to everyone the type of player he can be.

Soso, was doing what he does best and that is making defenders look silly and dribbling past everyone. He completed the most dribbles in a single match (10) throughout the Premier League this season and created 3 chances in the process.

He was credited with the assist on the Djenepo goal and was very solid passing the ball on Saturday completing 87% of his passes.

If Boufal continues to play like this the Saints are going to have a lot of creative options between him, Djenepo, and Redmond and they are going to give a lot of teams issues this season going forward.
