Team finishing Saints match only 1 player different to last seasons team

I noticed that the team playing out the last 15 mins was the same as last season apart from Hendrick, the experience of 23 undefeated and seeing out games counted for a lot, does anyone know of any teams with less changes at the close of a game and at this stage of the season

Previous home game v Sunderland - only Gudmundsson was on at the end who wasn't here last season.

There's something to be said for continuity, and giving a chance of EPL football to those who have earned it.

Tarkowski played the last few minutes, last season he was at Brentford.

What's your point exactly?

I think a really fair point is that with the exclusion of Defour all our players were championship last season, which includes those few players brought in.
