1. FC Koln (10th)
If it is a team with a similar style of play and similar kit colours to Saints that you want, FC Koln (Cologne) might be the choice for you.
Ralph Hasenhuttl is trying to introduce his pressing style of play at St Mary’s and is somewhere in the middle of that process, but it appears that Koln are closer to the finished product.
Via whoscored.com, we can see that they counter-attack and use set-pieces well whilst not being afraid to use a direct pass or two to get forward.
Their pressing style is highlighted by their team statistics when it comes to tackling and interceptions – 18.4 and 13.6 respectively per game puts them third and first in each category.
