Southampton simply must sign a striker in January – and here’s why

Need goals to make European football again

Southampton currently lie in 12th place in the Premier League, they need to finish at least 7th or win a trophy to be playing European football next season.

Their adventure in the competition this season is sure to spur them on and give them greater motivation to qualify again this campaign. But to do that they need to be averaging higher than the one goal per league game they currently are, a shiny new striker could solve this problem if he adapts well to the club.
