Southampton’s 2018/19 signings graded

Following the conclusion of the 2018/19 Premier League season, we can now look back on a mixed campaign that ultimately saw the Saints survive another year in the top flight.

Southampton concluded their season with a lacklustre 1-1 draw at home to Huddersfield on Sunday afternoon.

Now that the dust has settled, we thought it would be a good idea to look back at the signings that were made going into this season and rate their first campaign at the club.

The Saints made five signings in total and all were made in the summer transfer window of 2018 under Mark Hughes.

New manager Ralph Hasenhuttl believed he would be better off with no further additions in January despite being involved in a relegation battle.

The gaffer was proved right as the Saints finished five points clear of the bottom three.

Here’s how we rated the new signings with a grading system of A-F, A being a brilliant season, and F, well, not so good.
