Comments:

League position: 20th . Russell Martin was sacked immediately after this game. He had now become the third manager to lose 13 of his first 16 games in the Premier League; previously Mick McCarthy and Brian Laws. . Southampton had now taken five points from their last 16 games so far in this Premier League season; only Sheffield United in 2021-22 had fewer at this stage of a season in the division (two). . The Saints had now conceded 13 goals in their last three home games in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 10th . This was the first time that Tottenham Hotspur had scored five goals in the first-half of a game in the Premier League. . James Maddison’s opening goal was timed at 36 seconds. This became Spurs' earliest goal in a game in the Premier League since 31 January 2018 (Christian Eriksen scored after 11 seconds against Manchester United). . They had now scored two goals in the opening 12 minutes in each of their last two games in the Premier League.
