Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl takes a swipe at his sinning Saints

Ralph Hasenhuttl has laid into his Southampton squad after they were knocked back down to earth following surprise back-to-back wins.

Saints lost 2-1 at home to West Ham on Thursday night after beating Arsenal and Huddersfield Town to climb clear of the relegation zone.

Austrian boss Hasenhuttl, planning for Sunday’s visit by Manchester City, named names publicly on Friday with Alex McCarthy, Mario Lemina and Shane Long coming under fire.
