Charlie Austin is eager to make his own history at Southampton.

His phenomenal scoring record at previous clubs has only fuelled suggestions that he could turn into another Saints goalscoring legend, like Matt Le Tissier and Rickie Lambert.

But before his winner at Manchester United, Austin stated: “That's fine. But now I need to live up to that.

“For me it's not about trying to emulate anyone else but just trying to be myself.

“I say to everyone, I try and score as many goals as I can every time I go on the pitch.

“I don't really want to be known as the new Rickie Lambert or Matthew Le Tissier.

“I just want to be myself."
