Hasenhuettl departs having made a significant contribution to the club,” Southampton said in a statement. “However, we now believe it is an appropriate time to make a change. Sunday’s dismal display in their 4-1 home defeat by Newcastle United left the south-coast club languishing in the relegation zone after only three wins from 14 league games so far.

Southampton Coach Sacked: Southampton sack Ralph Hasenhuettl with club in relegation zone
After four straight defeats, Southampton strung together a three-match unbeaten run before losing to Crystal Palace last weekend and needed to bounce back against Newcastle, but they were clearly second-best throughout the contest.
Scoring goals had also been a problem for Hasenhuettl’s side this season, with their profligacy on display yet again against Newcastle, where the Austrian manager looked exasperated on the touchline and was left ruing missed opportunities. Southampton have netted only 12 times in 14 matches. Only Nottingham Forest and Wolverhampton Wanderers, both also in the relegation zone, as well as 16th-placed Everton have scored fewer goals so far.
