Southampton must snap up these 3 bargain buys in January

Morgan Schneiderlin

They say never go back, but could it be a good option for both Schneiderlin and Southampton this January? Morgan Schneiderlin is badly out of favour at Old Trafford, with new manager Jose Mourinho almost appearing to completely disregard the Frenchman, who has only made two appearances in the league so far this campaign. As a result, it is likely the 27-year-old will be available for a cut-price fee this January.

Southampton could do with another dynamic presence in the middle of the park and you would have to wager that Schneiderlin would hit the ground running upon a return to St Mary’s, a club where he spent seven years of his career. This could make a real difference to the Saints’ ability to control games, giving them a stronger footing from which to create chances and score goals.
