Out with hamstring problem Minamino has a "slight hamstring problem" and can maybe come back next week, according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl. "We rested him from the beginning [at Leeds] because we knew thr...
Impact Hamstring injuries aren't something to mess around with, so there's a decent chance Minamino misses the next two matches. It's unfortunate for the winger, as he scored in two of his first three starts with the club. His absence could mean more starts for Nathan Tella or for Nathan Redmond to move back to a role on the wing.

Fractures ankle, out for season Romeu will miss the rest of the season after fracturing his ankle in Tuesday's match, according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl.
Impact It's yet another blow to Southampton over the final couple months of the season. Romeu closes the season with one goal, one assist and 68 tackles in 20 starts, all of them improvements on the 2019/20 campaign from when he had 20 starts from 30 appearances. The hope is that Ibrahima Diallo can return from injury soon and take up the spot in central midfield.

Could miss time with injury Romeu left Tuesday's match with an ankle injury and according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl, it's "not good. His ankle is not looking good."
Impact For now, it's best to assume Romeu won't be ready for Monday's trip to Everton because of this injury. Unless he can quickly recover in less than a week, Southampton will likely be in a hole in central midfield once again, as they don't really have other options outside of James Ward-Prowse.

Plays 32 minutes off bench Ings had a shot not on target and one chance created in Tuesday's 3-0 loss to Leeds.
Impact In a rare move from Southampton coach Ralph Hasenhuttl, he decided to bench Ings for young forward Che Adams. He subbed on for Nathan Redmond during the 58th minute. It was Ings' first game off the bench since Dec. 7 and something unlikely to be a consistent occurrence while he is healthy.

Serviceable in return Armstrong recorded three shots (one on goal), two chances created and two inaccurate crosses in Tuesday's 3-0 loss to Leeds.
Impact Armstrong received a crushing loss in his return but distributed some usable value from Southampton's right side Tuesday. The downside in Armstrong's regular output is he does not exceed his norm. Armstrong has posted somewhere between zero to three shots, crosses and chances created across each of the Saints' 20 games this season.

Leads team in crosses and corners Ward-Prowse recorded five crosses (two accurate) and four corners in Tuesday's 3-0 loss to Leeds.
Impact Ward-Prowse has been one of few valuable fantasy players from a lackluster Southampton side. He is averaging 5.8 crosses and 4.1 corners across his past eight games. Ward-Prowse isn't a consistent top option but is the Saints player likeliest to stand out when competing in more favorable matchups.

Continues lackluster production McCarthy made four saves and conceded three goals in Tuesday's 3-0 loss to Leeds.
Impact McCarthy ensured a clean sheet through the first half but conceded goals to Patrick Bamford, Stuart Dallas and Raphinha in the second. He remains an unreliable fantasy option due to his number of goals allowed and low save rate. McCarthy is averaging 3.0 goals conceded and only 2.7 saves across eight games in this calendar year.

Leaves with ankle issue Romeu was forced off with a knock to his ankle in the 70th minute of Tuesday's match against Leeds.
Impact It's yet another issue for Romeu, who has struggled to stay in the squad over the last month because of a variety of injuries. It didn't look overly serious in Tuesday's match, but if he's forced to miss time, Southampton could again be in a hole in central midfield, as Ibrahima Diallo is also injured. Moussa Djenepo, who usually plays on the wing, came on for Romeu against Leeds.

Starting against Leeds Tella is in the starting XI for Tuesday's match against Leeds United.
Impact Tella has provided a spark when in the squad this season and that led to a first league start for him. Of course, since he's never went a full 90, he'll likely be subbed off early Tuesday, especially with Takumi Minamino and Moussa Djenepo on the bench.

In starting XI against Leeds Armstrong (undisclosed) will be in the starting XI for Tuesday's clash with Leeds United.
Impact Armstrong has played in just one of the club's previous three matches due to injury but will be back on the pitch Tuesday. The midfielder has started 19 of his 20 appearances this year in which he has registered three goals on 25 shots (four on target), three assists and 22 crosses (four accurate) and figures to continue providing solid fantasy value this season.

Moved to bench role Adams has come off the bench and played 26 minutes in each of the last two matches.
Impact After a run of minimal production, Adams was moved to a bench role in recent contests, getting replaced by Nathan Redmond up front. Adams has had his moments this season, but consistency has been an issue, as he has four goals and four assists in 23 appearances, all of those coming in the first half of the campaign.

Gets first league start Salisu had three tackles and four clearances in Saturday's draw against Chelsea, his first league start at Southampton.
Impact Salisu will likely continue to get minutes while Kyle Walker-Peters is injured because Southampton are lacking full-backs. The former Valladolid player has looked solid in his appearances and could eventually earn starts even when everyone else is healthy.

Remains without timeline Diallo (strain) does not have tendon involvement in his injury and will be back before Theo Walcott, according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl.
Impact Diallo has been out since Jan. 30 and while he doesn't have a return date set, this is at least a good sign for a return to the squad in the next couple weeks. Fortunately for Southampton, Oriol Romeu is back from injury and starting in Diallo's absence.

Late test for Tuesday Armstrong (knock) is "50-50" for Tuesday's match against Leeds, according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl.
Impact Armstrong was a surprise absence over the weekend and while the issue doesn't appear serious, it could hold him out two matches on a short week. Even if in the squad, it'd be a surprise if he started Tuesday given that he's 50-50, which could mean another start for Moussa Djenepo on the wing.
