The Dutchman said: "He had pre-season with a lot of training sessions, he had friendlies and the Super Cup.

"For him, it's more easy for him to go into the game from the bench.

"He will watch the Premier League, our opponents and our team as well."

In his programme notes, Ralph Hasenhuttl says United will be full of confidence but insists the Saints are also full of belief following two wins and a draw.

He said:"I'm sure Erik would have taken a lot of encouragement from the way his team played against Liverpool on Monday night.

"The talent in their squad is clear to see, and they produced a very good performance to beat a top team, so they will come here feeling confident today.

"The same is true for us, with two wins and a draw from our last three matches."
