Southampton vs Manchester United: Welcome to Sportstar's blog of the Premier League match being played at the St. Mary's Stadium in Southampton, England.
"The whole transfer window, we are happy with what we did until now, but the bar has to be high." We need runs and movement if you want to dictate a game." "We need to have a high standard. "It has to be a way of life and I hope they understand." "The spirit was already good but now it's even better (after Monday's victory). "What I demand is that players bring the top spirit every day.
Erik ten Hag will be hoping to secure his second Premier League win when his Manchester United side travel to Southampton on Saturday afternoon.
Man United are looking to find space in behind the Southampton defence but the hosts have coped well so far. Southampton are clearly looking to cause problems with balls into the box. In-form Che Adams has his first shot on goal with a header that loops over the bar. Then it's Adams who wriggles away from the defence and fires an effort straight at De Gea. 36’ Southampton 0-0 Manchester United 40’ Southampton 0-0 Manchester United A series of superb blocks by the Southampton defenders kept Fernandes, Eriksen and Elanga out before Bella-Kotchap missed the target with the host's best chance. 42’ Southampton 0-0 Manchester United It's Bella-Kotchap who makes a huge challenge to deny Elanga as he latched onto a one-two in the box.

Manchester United are continuing talks with Ajax over Antony after a new bid was rejected on Friday by the Dutch club, according to Sky Sports News Report: Manchester United Continue Talks Over Winger After New Bid Was Rejected
Manchester United have three points to show after as many games in the Premier League and it has been far from smooth sailing for new manager Erik ten Hag.
“Antony is becoming restless at the two clubs’ failure to agree a fee for him. There are doubts whether United will go past the €100 million threshold but another increased bid is likely. [Casemiro](https://thepeoplesperson.com/2022/08/27/casemiro-to-wear-number-18-for-manchester-united-251802/) deal was also quite pricey as United entered negotiations quite late. But this is not expected to stop United’s pursuit of the Brazilian winger. They took their time before managing to get free agent Christian Eriksen to sign on the dotted lines. The Dutchman is facing the same issues which at one point had plagued his predecessors.

He has a bundle of tricks and will open things up for them. ’I think they have done that all summer, we have seen that with [Frenkie] De Jong. That has dragged on all summer because that is a player that he has identified and that he wants. He is at a good club in Ajax, don’t get me wrong. ’The one I would say is, is he good enough? Ferdinand backed new United boss Erik ten Hag to build a team that 'suits his character' and stated that they will have to go 'above and beyond' if they are to land the Brazilian star.
Manchester United earned the first away victory of the season by defeating Southampton 1-0 in the Premier League's early Saturday game.
Back to Back wins… Prior to the match, the Saints had rescued four points from losing positions in their previous two outings and were looking to repeat a turnaround. Armstrong 63), A. United stormed out of the blocks after the interval, heaping early pressure on the home side and were rewarded 10 minutes following the restart. However, the best opportunity fell to Armel Bella-Kotchap. A Diogo Dalot cross caused mayhem in the penalty area as the Southampton keeper Gavin Bazunu and his defence somehow frantically denied Bruno Fernandes the chance to head home, before thwarting Anthony Elanga, Fernandes again and then Christian Eriksen – all from around the six-yard box.

"I think it was the best part of us, we kept control straight after half time. Now we have to carry on," Fernandes said after the match. They did a really good job from the first minute. We had good moments and chances, we really stretched them. Of course we were really happy. We have experienced that already, sometimes you have to suffer. "I'm very proud of what the guys did today. "It's important because one win or two wins don't make the league. [Liverpool](/soccer/team?id=364), United should have gone ahead in the 19th minute but were denied by [Gavin Bazunu](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/275735/Gavin-Bazunu) and [Armel Bella-Kotchap](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/286128/Armel-Bella-Kotchap), who kept out [Anthony Elanga](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/296622/Anthony-Elanga) and [Christian Eriksen](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/144130/Christian-Eriksen) from close range. We were more compact on the long balls. After Liverpool everyone could feel it. "We knew it playing against Southampton, it is not easy.
Bruno Fernandes's sweetly struck finish early in the second half gave Manchester United a 1-0 win against Southampton in a keenly contested match.
The referee was looking directly at the incident but his view was possibly concealed by McTominay, who appeared to juggle the ball with both his left and right hands before swatting it away in the box. It is a new way of playing and [there are] a lot of new facts. We started from the first day of pre-season to get that in and now the window is not closed so every time a new player is in we have to inform them about the rules. First Fernandes miscued a header from a Diogo Dalot cross under pressure from Walker-Peters and from there another barmy few seconds in the United chronicles ensued. Tyrell Malacia was bright, Christian Eriksen was typically classy at the base of midfield and, for all of the flak that came his way following the dismal defeats by Brentford and Brighton, Lisandro Martínez was gallant in defence. More new faces are expected too, with Ten Hag keen on signing a backup goalkeeper and a reunion with the Ajax forward Antony, who has made clear his desire to depart the Eredivisie club.

A daft challenge, and a free kick in a very dangerous position, just to the right of the Saints D. 39 min: In a tight spot in the United box, Adams spins away from Martinez. But United come again, McTominay chasing down the right and taking a whack from a tight-ish angle. Rashford battles for the ball, but Kotchap is determined to usher the ball out of play for a goal kick, and he’s strong enough to get the job done without fear or fuss. 53 min: Kotchap is having a fine game, so it’s a worry for Saints that he goes down feeling the back of his leg. 59 min: Dalot’s poor pass out from the back leads to a Saints throw, deep in United territory on the left. 44 min: Aribo sticks out a leg in the hope of poking the ball away from McTominay, who needs no further invitation to go down. On BT Sport, Paul Scholes thinks this game is tailor-made for Ronaldo, on account of his being not half bad at getting on the end of a cross. Nothing comes of the break, but what a block! The away fans enjoyed that, and sing a paean to Argentina. Adams is brought to a thundering halt by Martinez, but the ball breaks to Stuart Armstrong, whose shot is blocked in equally unceremonious style by McTominay. 85 min: Kotchap channels his inner Beckenbauer by snaffling a loose ball 40 yards from the United goal, breezing past Casemiro, entering the box, and …

Dalot’s pinpoint assist proved to be match-winning for United at a key point of the game. Perhaps most impressively of all, he audibly dictated when his teammates needed to tighten up through the centre. United’s new signing only entered the pitch with 10 minutes to go, and he was absolutely everywhere! Saints couldn’t deal with the sheer numbers in the box as Fernandes was left wide open on the edge for his magic moment. The Portuguese right-back stayed composed, recovered possession and offered a physical presence throughout. The 23-year-old’s crunching tackle down the wing gave him an early boost of confidence and he never looked back. Another Elanga run inside set the goal in motion by freeing up space for Dalot, Sancho and Bruno in one fell swoop. Bruno’s ability to link passing moves together brought the likes of Sancho and Marcus Rashford into the game when they would have otherwise been completely isolated. There was a 15-minute spell just after half-time where our manager’s intelligence changed the course of the game. His calmness on the ball and ability to pick a simple pass also aided us in some tight positions as Southampton overloaded the flanks. He also showed real desire to bomb forward and aid the attack. Fernandes’s lethal winner sealed the win, in what was his second consecutive match wearing the captain's armband.
MANCHESTER UNITED are hoping to sign Antony from Ajax before the summer transfer window slams shut, despite his club making things difficult.
And Antony recently went public as he attempts to secure a move away. Personal terms have been wrapped up, with the Samba star eager to be strutting his stuff in the Premier League. The Samba star is [Erik ten Hag](/latest/erik-ten-hag)’s top target. [Manchester United](/latest/manchester-united-fc) remain hopeful of signing Antony, despite seeing a huge £76million bid for the Brazil international turned down by Ajax. Now, the onus is on United to get a third agreement when it comes to the 22-year-old - with two in the bag already. And John Murtough and Ten Hag are on the same page when it comes to Antony, which is why the Red Devils are continuing negotiations with Ajax in the hope they’ll end up buckling.
Erik ten Hag has praised Bruno Fernandes after Man Utd secured back-to-back wins in the Premier League this week.
"That is what we did today and I'm happy with that. What we bring on the pitch I am really happy with that." "Today he brought the same on the pitch and the finish was really fantastic. A lot of new factors and will not go 100% from the start, but we have to get results and win games. When you come in a season it is always tough," he said. "This gives him an impulse, the captaincy.

Erik ten Hag looks likely to be reuinited with Ajax's Antony at Manchester United and alongside the likes of Jadon Sancho, there are now options for United.
There needs to be an extra runner off the backline in this instance. Bruno Fernandes can certainly do this job, but he would need to avoid dropping deeper to try and influence play. A front three of Rashford, Martial and Sancho can work well and being able to have the dangerous option of the Brazilian coming off the bench will always be positive. It seems wrong to not include the marquee signing in all three options, but there will be times throughout the season where he will be better off as an option from the bench, unless he has an extraordinary start to life in England.

A lovely worked team goal, scored by Bruno Fernandes, was enough to seal the three points to take back to Manchester, even if at times the Red Devils rode their ...
The arrival of £85 million-rated Antony from AFC Ajax should assist in that. After the first two disastrous results of the season, Manchester United could have quickly spiralled into complete freefall. The Red Devils have been dying out for a true defensive-minded midfielder and now finally have one. Not only can he more than handle himself in the air, his passing range and footwork is sensational, taking him away from danger in a split second.
