Stoke City showed a different side of themselves at Southampton and left the south coast having turned a very good start to the season into a great one.

They edged the game with 11 men on the field but it was Divin Mubama's red card that gave the Potters the chance to really show the progress they're making.

Stoke started the game well without creating the clear-cut chances their work between the boxes deserved.

They were thankful for one terrific save from Viktor Johansson and wastefulness from impressive teenager Jay Robinson and former Stoke man Taylor Harwood-Bellis, but they were the better side.
