A number of Southampton fans have taken to Twitter to comment on Jannik Vestergaard’s performance as the Saints beat Aston Villa 4-3 on Sunday.

Villa Park played host to another incredible game as Ralph Hasenhuttl’s men looked set to hand the home side their second successive heavy defeat.

The Saints took a 4-0 lead inside an hour. And it was Vestergaard who gave them the lead with a fantastic header after just 20 minutes.

Ultimately, James Ward-Prowse will understandably take many of the headlines. He scored two stunning free-kicks and provided the assist for Vestergaard’s goal.

But plenty of supporters felt that Vestergaard gave Ward-Prowse a run for his money. It has been a remarkable start to the season for the centre-back.

Southampton fans would have been forgiven for wanting the Dane moved on over the summer. As shown by Spotrac, he earns £60,000-a-week at St Mary’s. And he had previously struggled to live up to expectations on the south coast.

However, he appears to have turned a corner in dramatic fashion in more recent times. And some clearly think that he has been one of the side’s best players so far this term.
