What we're doing is scary, says Hasenhuttl as Saints go top
The HinduRalph Hasenhuttl described his Southampton side's form as scary after a 2-0 win over Newcastle United put the south-coast club top of the Premier League for the first time ever on Friday. “Amazing what my team does at the moment,” the Austrian coach, who has transformed Southampton in the past 12 months after a 9-0 home defeat by Leicester City, told Sky Sports. But in Theo Walcott, playing his first home game after returning to his boyhood club on loan from Everton, Adams and Armstrong, Southampton looked potent in attack. “Theo's workload was amazing too.” Southampton is reaping the rewards for refusing to panic after the debacle against Leicester and from a side that for much of last season looked to be heading for relegation, it now appears capable of challenging for a European spot.
