Now, I believe this is correct after a bit of checking - but for the first time in club history, Saints can field a first eleven of players all capped at senior level. GK: Fraser Forster - ENGLAND RB: Nathaniel Clyne - ENGLAND CB: José Fonte - PORTUGAL CB: Toby Alderweireld - BELGIUM LB: Ryan Bertrand - ENGLAND CM: Morgan Schneiderlin - FRANCE CM: Victor Wanyama - KENYA CM: Steven Davis - NORTHERN IRELAND RW: Dušan Tadić - SERBIA ST: Graziano Pellè - ITALY LW: Sadio Mané - SENEGAL Then you also have... Florin Gardos - ROMANIA Maya Yoshida - JAPAN Shane Long - REPUBLIC OF IRELAND Jay Rodriguez - ENGLAND Emmanuel Mayuka - ZAMBIA ...and then players at youth level... (U21 and below) Cody Cropper - UNITED STATES Matt Targett - ENGLAND Harrison Reed - ENGLAND James Ward-Prowse - ENGLAND Lloyd Isgrove - WALES Sam Gallagher - ENGLAND DTLW
Yep. Was mentioned in a very complimentary article in the Sunday Times today (which was basically saying that those Saints players (Morgan) saying they harbour desires to play for a 'big club' may be wanting to think again).
