Saints duo Nathan Redmond and Jack Stephens enlisted the help of schoolchildren to prank Ralph Hasenhuttl.

Hasenhuttl attended the press conference with a difference but wasn't aware that two of his players were giving the kids the questions to ask the Austrian.

Redmond and Stephens were parked outside the front of Staplewood, where they had a live feed to what was happening inside the auditorium.

Some of the questions asked included: Did Hasenhuttl copy Jurgen Klopp? Which player complains the most? What is your tactical philosophy?

The video was part of Virgin Media's new fans initiative ‘Super Saints’.

Cilesta Van Doorn, Brand Director, from Virgin Media said: “With such passion and scrutiny in their questioning I’d say we have found ourselves some future sports journalists.

“Ralph was a fantastic sport and all of the children had an incredible time which is the most important thing.

“Giving Southampton fans these once-in-a-lifetime opportunities is what our Super Saints initiative is all about.”
