Ryan Bertrand is among the best left-backs in the Premier League and he has hit new heights again this season.
The England international has further cemented himself in the national team and has even added to his game with Saints.
Last season he scored once and that was a penalty as a token gesture in the final game of the campaign, when Ronald Koeman's side won 4-1 against Crystal Palace.
This time around however, the 27-year-old has netted three times and they've been pretty damn good finishes too.
His first came in the 2-0 win over Arsenal in the quarter-final of the EFL Cup, a superb volley from the edge of the box.
Bertrand was then at it again with an even better strike, when he cut in off the left flank and hits home from the narrow angle after a superb solo run to equalise in the 3-1 win at Bournemouth.
At Chelsea recently he scored a late consolation in the 4-2 defeat.
Bertrand has continued to consistently deliver on his left side, with his swashbuckling runs forward one his best assets. He's not often outwitted defensively, either.
One of the most complete full-backs probably in the world right now.
And his performances have, unfortunately, not gone unnoticed this term, with Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City all apparently interested in his signature.
