EPL: Shame as Onuachu, Aribo, finally sink with Southampton
Big disappointment for Paul Onuachu and Joe Aribo followed Southampton into the turbulent relegation waters.
Saints lost to Fulham to confirm their relegation.
Ruben Selles said, “It is a very tough day – for me, for everybody in the dressing room, for the city, for the fans. It has been a tough season for all of us.
“We have been fighting not to be relegated from the very beginning and the day came today. I just want to say thank you to everybody for the support we felt from the very first day.
“It’s tough, especially for the fans that have been supporting us for their entire lives.

“This club has quality enough to bounce back immediately, with or without me, but what we feel now is a very big disappointment.”
A relegation fight was not what Joe Aribo bargained for when he moved to the South Coast from Scottish Premiership club, Glasgow Rangers last summer.
Paul Onuachu was brought in on a rescue mission in January but has so far failed in that mission.
