Earlier this week Ralph Hasenhüttl said he likes going under the radar but that will be increasingly difficult after Southampton surged to the top of the Premier League, moving to the summit of the English top flight for the first time since 1988.
Che Adams opened the scoring before Stuart Armstrong made sure of the points eight minutes from time as they brushed aside a desperately poor Newcastle to earn a third successive league win. After eight games, Southampton sit pretty on 16 points, a tally they did not accumulate until almost midway through last season. In fact, this time last year Southampton were toiling in the relegation zone with a goal difference of -17.
