The 25-year-old winger has been ruled out of the Saints weekend match against Sheffield United after failing to recover in time from an ankle problem that kept Redmond out of Southampton’s 1-1 draw against Manchester United before the international break.
With no Redmond for the matchday squad, some Southampton fans were concerned about the latest injury setback to the former Norwich City attacker and took to social media to voice their problems.
Here is what some Saints supporters had to say on Twitter…
