Southampton 2-1 Norwich City: Premier League – Saints Player Ratings
By Marc Walker
Manager, Goalkeeper and Defenders
Ralph Hasenhuttl, Manager – 7
Set out his team well and their pressing was mostly excellent. Deserves great credit for this turnaround, but will need to a find a way to help his side see games out in the last 20 minutes.
Alex McCarthy, Goalkeeper – 6
Not troubled at all in the first-half, but had to make flying save to deny Pukki seconds into the second-half.
Cedric Soares, Right-Back – 5
Another display that highlighted that his head may not be at the club and that Valery is the future.
Jack Stephens, Centre-Back – 7
Dominant against the Norwich attack and has emerged as perhaps the most important man in the Saints defence at the moment.
Jan Bednarek, Centre-Back – 7
Strong alongside Stephens and some useful forward passes at times.
Ryan Bertrand, Left-Back – 6
Nodded in second after corner flicked on by Long. Steady, and his time-wasting skills must be admired.
