Southampton Football Club revealed their ultimate XI as voted for by the supporters as part of a local exhibition at the SeaCity museum via their official website on Wednesday, and Saints fans were quick to react.

The St Mary’s faithful had been voting for their best team comprised of players that had made at least 150 appearances for the south coast outfit, with the results announced on Wednesday.

Peter Shilton, Jason Dodd, Claus Lundekvam, Jose Fonte, Wayne Bridge, Alan Ball, Matt Le Tissier, Adam Lallana, Rickie Lambert, Mick Channon and Alan Shearer made the cut, with Terry Paine and Kevin Keegan perhaps two of the biggest surprise absentees from the side as they only made the substitutes’ bench.

Southampton supporters, who have also had their say on the club’s reported interest in Huddersfield Town manager David Wagner, took to social media to give their thoughts on the ultimate XI, and while one described it as “outrageous”, another said “Wayne Bridge? Surely not?”

Here is just a selection of the Twitter reaction…
