Southampton’s relegation fears have been heightened after a damaging defeat away to West Ham United on Saturday. Losing 3-0 to their fellow relegation rivals, Mark Hughes’ side failed to perform again when it really mattered, leaving supporters bitterly disappointed.
Goals from Joao Mario and Marko Arnautovic provided the victory, with Saints failing to deal with the Hammers at all, especially in the first half with all three conceded before the interval.
In the relegation zone with just seven games remaining, it’ll take a massive effort to salvage their current situation, although they do have a game in hand over Crystal Palace above them.
Fans were upset with the result and performance as you can imagine, singling out defender Wesley Hoedt as having a particularly poor game.

Supporters took to Twitter to share their thoughts on his performance…
