Southampton legend Matt Le Tissier expects new manager Mauricio Pellegrino to seek creative players this summer.

Saints finished eighth last season under former manager Claude Puel.

Le Tissier told Sky Sports: "I would imagine his remit would be the top-eight which is where we have finished for the last four seasons, it was great to get to a cup final which we narrowly missed out on.

"Probably the biggest thing would be to maybe add a little more creativity in the way we play. A little more of the high pressing that we became accustomed to over a few seasons with [Mauricio] Pochettino and with Ronald Koeman.

"That's what the club are looking for - somebody who can take the club back to the way we were playing before last season."
