Watford were unable to replicated their positive performance away at Everton, as Southampton left Vicarage Road with all three points.

Here's how we rated their individual performances.

Ben Foster - 6

Not much he could've done about the goal, but poor distribution throughout. 

 

Jeremy Ngakia - 5

Had a hard day with Ismaila Sarr not getting back and helping out in defence.

 

William Troost-Ekong - 5

Made some good blocks, but was partially to blame for the goal, with Che Adams turning far too easily on the edge of the area.

 

Craig Cathcart - 4

Started the game by almost scoring an own goal, lost Adams for the winning strike.

 

Adam Masina - 4.5

Frequently beaten by Livramento.

 

Moussa Sissoko - 6.5

Once again, one of the only players to come away with any credit, but wasn't helped by those around him.

 

Juraj Kucka - 5

Let frustration get the better of him and put some silly tackles in. 

 

Ismaila Sarr - 4

Half-hearted and mindless at times. Showed no desire to get back. His least impressive performance since his arrival.

 

Cucho Hernandez - 4.5

Huffed and puffed but end product was poor.

 

Joao Pedro - 5

Deserving of his place in the starting XI, but the change didn't pay off.

 

Joshua King - 6

Held the ball up well, but couldn't create a lot. Poor decision making at times.

 

Substitutes

 

Tom Cleverley - 5.5

Showed desire and helped push Southampton back in the second half, but creatively offered little.

 

Ken Sema - 5

Struggled to make an impact after coming on.

 

Ashley Fletcher - 5.5

Had a shot on target, but otherwise didn't offer enough.
