James Ward-Prowse is a household name in English football.
A hard-working, consistent midfielder shining for his boyhood club. But where he truly excels is from dead ball situations.
And his set-piece prowess was on full display against Aston Villa, after scoring two incredible free kicks in the first half.
More importantly for the Southampton captain, he overtook club legend Matt Le Tissier (7 goals) by scoring eight free-kick goals for the club in Premier League fixtures.
Talk about your dream Sunday? Wearing the armband, making history, leaving a Saints legend in your dust?
Yes please.
