Ralph Hasenhüttl is the cover star for Sunday’s matchday programme, as the new Southampton manager takes charge of his first home match against Arsenal.
The Christmas-themed publication includes an eight-page feature interview with the Austrian, who discusses his footballing philosophy and what he hopes to achieve in the job.

Our history section continues to provide a welcome dose of nostalgia, including Hasenhüttl’s predecessors in the Saints hot seat and some fondly-remembered Norwegians who have donned the red and white stripes.
