Nathan Redmond says playing for Southampton is a pleasure as Claude Puel's men recover from EFL Cup final loss with victory over Watford

Nathan Redmond is revelling playing for Southampton - even if team-mate Ryan Bertrand is giving him earache.

Redmond scored twice as Saints recovered from their EFL Cup final loss to Manchester United by beating Watford 4-3 at Vicarage Road.

The Hornets struggled to cope with Saints' pace and movement, with Dusan Tadic and Manolo Gabbiadini - for the sixth time in four games - also on target.
