Many Southampton fans have slammed the performance of Jan Bednarek in their 1-0 win away to Watford in the Premier League on Saturday.

Ralph Hasenhuttl's men picked up a vital three points thanks to a lovely finish from Che Adams on the 20-minute mark, but a lot of Saints supporters were still unimpressed with the Poland defender's performance.

The 25-year-old lost out on three of his duels and failed to block any shots, while he also lost possession of the ball on 12 different occasions in the match (SofaScore). In the closing minutes, he was turned all too easily by Ashley Fletcher, whose shot was brilliantly clawed away by Alex McCarthy to preserve victory for Southampton (Sky Sports).

It has led to some fans calling for summer signing Lyanco to come into the starting line-up instead of Bednarek, as they want to see more of their new recruit.

These Saints fans on Twitter were left slamming the Pole's performance, with one supporter even going as far as to claim that the defender was a 'liability' at Vicarage Road:

"Lyanco surely has to start from now on. Bednarek is becoming a liability at the back, if it wasn't for the likes of Salisu and Tino mopping up for him."

"Good half, Bednarek showing why Lyanco should be playing though. Switching off at vital moments! Top hit from Chele but should be 3 up!"

"Maya Yoshida wouldn't have gotten away with half the errors that Jan Bednarek makes on a weekly basis."
