Ralph Hasenhuttl admitted it was “a little bit scary” his side’s sublime current form and added: “We’ve developed every part of our game.” The Saints boss was speaking after his troops registered their fifth win in six Premier League games to go top of the table of the table on Friday night. Goals from Che Adams and Stuart Armstrong earned Saints a 2-0 victory over Newcastle United – a side they had previously lost their past three games against.
Ralph Hasenhuttl said “It’s amazing what my team does in the moment, Congratulations to everybody around the pitch and the team. Amazing. We could maybe have scored more but the rest was perfect. Everybody was on the highest level. It is a little scary what we are doing at the moment to be honest but not surprising when I see what we are working on. We could have closed the game, earlier – that was definitely possible. The way we played through lines was fantastic to watch. We can then make the last pass and final decision even better but this is criticism on a high level. We know it’s not so easy to create a lot of chances against these teams. We’re a strong side and this is not a coincidence as we’ve developed every part of our game, Our game management has been very brave and I feel it has helped us in some situations where there’s no crowd in the stadium so we can develop our game. There’s not so much stress now, and we’ve got used to it. As a result, we’ve now got a more complete game.”
