Southampton midfielder Redmond: Stuff of nightmares

Southampton midfielder Nathan Redmond admits they're "embarrassed" after their home thrashing by Leicester City.

The Foxes ran out 9-0 winners over the Saints at St Mary's, with Youri Tielemans, Ayoze Perez (3), Jamie Vardy (3) and James Maddison all on the scoresheet.

Redmond said: "It was an embarrassing performance, the stuff of nightmares and especially playing at home.

"It just wasn't good enough and one of the poorest performances since I've been at the club and we'll have to debrief that whole game from start to finish tomorrow.

"There were a host of things that went wrong - the red card decision and then the quick goal at the same time. We conceded goals far too quickly in the first half.

"We need to do much, much better. I think we had a few players out of position after the sending off and we tried to deal with it as best we could.

"There are the things we need to look at tomorrow but it was an embarrassing performance."
