Southampton will need to bolster their attacking options if they hope to avoid relegation back to the Championship, and the young and talented Brereton Diaz could be the answer. At just 25 years old, Diaz has already shown his ability to find the back of the net, as evidenced by his performance against Newcastle where he linked up well with Adam Armstrong. His loan spell with Sheffield United last season was promising, with six goals in 14 Premier League starts for the struggling side.
According to Phil Agius, Diaz is on track to become a favorite among the Southampton fans. Joe Casey also expressed confidence in Yankuba Minteh, who despite being forced off in his Premier League debut for Brighton against Everton, showed flashes of brilliance that justified the club’s record-breaking signing.
Liam Flin believes that despite his high price tag, Amadou Onana has proven to be a smart signing for Aston Villa. His goal against West Ham showcased his aerial prowess, which will be crucial for Villa’s success this season. Henry Hardwicke echoed these sentiments, praising Onana’s impact in the early stages of his Villa career.
Crysencio Summerville made a brief appearance off the bench in his West Ham debut, but many believe it won’t be long before the 22-year-old becomes a regular starter for the Hammers. Summerville’s goal-scoring record with Leeds in the Championship last season, coupled with his promising performances in the Premier League, make him a player to watch for the upcoming season.
