Good to see Kieran Freeman included in this quartet. He was hailed as a "wonder-kid" when he joined the Saints academy from Dundee Utd in 2016 but has since suffered a meniscus tear sandwiched between two ACL injuries. There must have been fears for his future in the game after such a run of serious injuries but looks like he's now been given a clean bill of health. Will be interesting to see if he lives up to the original hype.

Football isn't as black and white as that.
For example, Josh Sims struggled to get into the Reading team but was excellent and a game changer vs Spurs in his first game under Hassenhuttl.
Different managers; different teams; different circumstances
