Che Adams opens his account with style

It was a moment every at the club and every supporter had been waiting for and what a way to do it. From just a measly 39 yards, Adams caught Ederson off his line and banged in his first goal as a Saint. The whole team went over to celebrate with him and you could tell how much it meant to all of them.

It really speaks to the comradery of the team and when this season is over we will look back to that goal as one of the high points.

Now that he has finally gotten that first goal out of the way, I suspect he could snag himself a few more before the season is done. He will likely get some chance in the final 5 matches of the season and now that the pressure is off he can relax and go back to what he knows how to do.

He clearly has talent and I suspect he could play a big part in our success next season and beyond.
