When it comes to English wide-men in the Premier League, few have had a better season than Nathan Redmond.
Southampton made the 22-year-old their main priority over the summer, snapping him up from relegated Norwich City for an eight-figure fee.
And he has repaid their faith, scoring on his debut and adding important goals against Burnley and Manchester City.
He has really hit the ground running, so many were left bemused to see him miss out on
Gareth Southgate's England squad for the upcoming matches against Scotland and Spain.

'There were some players that weren't available to us last time with injury who are in good form that make the frame – the likes of Nathaniel Clyne, Adam Lallana and Raheem Sterling. It's good to be able to welcome them back,' Southgate said in
a statement.
Fans have made it clear who they would have picked ahead of some of the interim manager's selections, and the former Birmingham youngster's name features prominently.
Others who might consider themselves unlucky not to make the cut are Michail Antonio - who remains uncapped despite featuring in the last two squads - and Sunderland's rare bright spark Jermain Defoe.
