Might well have fancied another go at the first couple of goals. Spilled one a little later that almost allowed Southampton to make it three - which is did with one he'd have also liked another look at. He's had excellent days and not excellent days with Wednesday - this was one of the latter.placeholder image

'Reyt good' 'Spilled it' - A 3/10 and an 8/10 in Sheffield Wednesday player ratings from Southampton defeat

An understandably tired Sheffield Wednesday performance saw things peter out as Southampton rumbled the changes to beat the Owls 3-1 at St Mary’s.

Harry Amass’ first goal for Wednesday was a stunner and pulled on many of his finest attributes, but it proved to be the brightest moment of the long away trip for the beleaguered Owls, who head into a much-needed and well-earned international break on the back of defeat.

The Saints had scored twice ahead of Amass’ goal through Carsten Jander and Finn Azaz, with Adam Armstrong adding a finish of real quality to take any wind out of Wednesday sails at the start of the second half.

From there, things became something of a procession as Southampton sat in and Wednesday dragged themselves through efforts to get things going.

Here are our ratings after defeat on the south coast.
