3. Southampton – 23.71
Youngest player: Luke Shaw, 17.
Oldest player: Kelvin Davis, 36.
A fairly sturdy return to the Premier League has been underpinned by youth for the Saints, epitomised by the success of 17-year-old left-back Luke Shaw.
They clearly also felt that manager Nigel Adkins was past it at 48 and went for more of a baby face with 41-year-old Mauricio Pochettino mid-season.
