Claude Puel has compared new signing Nathan Redmond to Thierry Henry. Although this seems pretty far-fetched, Puel may still have unearthed a gem. Employing him as a striker instead of on the wing, Puel brought out the best in the 22-year-old Englishman.

Redmond had a sluggish first half but improved drastically as the game progressed. A brilliantly controlled volley earned the Saints a deserved point against 10-men Watford. Redmond was also at his creative best, contributing 4 key passes in the match.

Rating - 7/10
