Southampton fans react to clip of Long looking back at his Saints career

A number of Southampton fans have reacted to a clip of Shane Long looking back at his favourite moments playing for the club.

Some Saints fans have taken to Twitter to react to the post from the club, with Long picking out his quick goal against Watford as one of his highlights so far.

Long broke the Premier League record for the fastest goal scored in the history of the division against Watford last season. He was quick to close down a Watford defender from kick-off, before racing clear on goal and dinking the ball over Ben Foster and into the net, just 7.69 seconds into the match.

The previous record-holder was former Tottenham defender Ledley King, who scored against Bradford in 2000 after 10 seconds.

Long was looking back at his best moments with the club’s media team after recently hitting 200 appearances for the club.

These Southampton fans reacted to the post.

Although one Southampton fan did not see the bright side of Long’s memories…
