Southampton has jokingly issued a 'hands off' warning to Liverpool after Danny Ings scored a brace against Watford.

Ings spent last season on loan at Saints before sealing a £20m permanent move in the summer.

He has gone from strength to strength at St. Mary's, with the goals against Watford taking his tally to 21 for the campaign.

And after a Liverpool fan asked Saints on Twitter if they could re-sign the Englishman, the south-coast club responded: "You've had enough from us..."
