A monumental result
Some results feel like they affect an entire season rather than that weekend’s movers and shakers in the league table. Leeds United’s narrow victory over Southampton seems to fall into that category.
This was a frighteningly abysmal Saints outfit, rightly propping up the top flight, which simply had to be beaten. The connotations of going 11 matches without a league win, after playing the division’s worst team, at home, with a new head coach, were too much to bear.
