Strikers and Substitutes

Danny Ings, Striker – 9

Speculation about his future continues to rumble on, but Ings showed why Saints need him.

A clever assist to set up Stuart Armstrong’s goal and then a brilliant run and finish to equalise.

Nathan Redmond, Striker – 9

Excellent. Buzzing about the pitch all afternoon and is making more and more of the correct decisions in games.

One goal, one assist, four key passes and four completed dribbles in all prove he needs an extended run to develop in his current striker role.

Mohammed Salisu, 1st Substitute – N/A

Brought on to stop the flow of Burnley attacks down the right.

Che Adams, 2nd Substitute – N/A

Not enough time to influence the game overall but did miss an absolute sitter that thankfully didn’t cost Saints.

Moussa Djenepo, 3rd Substitute – N/A

No time to influence that game but will get more chances to impress between now and the end of the season.

Man City ready to make move for Danny Ings. dark. Next
