Burnley rediscovered some of their old swagger as they brushed aside West Ham 2-0 to ease their relegation worries.
Chris Wood got his now customary strike against the Hammers before the outstanding 19-year-old Dwight McNeil bagged his first Premier League goal - both inside the opening 35 minutes.
Four days after they were thrashed 5-1 here by Everton, Burnley looked resolute at the back and confident going forward as they secured only their second win since the start of October, offering reminders of why they were playing their way into Europe this time last year.
Relive the action below.

First attack from City. Bernardo Silva drives forward and feeds Mahrez. He looks to cut into the box but he's stopped in his tracks by Targett.
We'll have goal updates from Turf Moor, too, where Joe Hart has been dropped by Burnley. They need a win today.

City have started with intent. Aguero collects the ball on the edge of the box and plays Silva in. His ball in is dangerous but Southampton manage to clear.

Brilliant save by McCarthy, who gets a strong hand to a Silva shot that appeared destined for the net. Southampton are really struggling to deal with City in the early stages.

First big chance for the hosts. Austin times his run well and stays onside. The ball over the top from Elyounoussi is a good one, but Austin can't get the ball under control and Ederson collects.
GOAL! Southampton 0-1 Manchester City (Silva)

City look at their best in the final third today. Bernardo Silva is given way too much space to run into the box. He picks out his namesake, David Silva, who converts past a helpless McCarthy. 1-0
Burnley 0-0 West Ham

Burnley have started well at Turf Moor but have no goals to show for it. West Ham come into this one in good form, so their fans will be expecting a positive result today.

It's been an ideal start for City. Other than the Austin chance, they've controlled this game and look more than capable of putting a few past Southampton.

Burnley have the goal their start has warranted. Ashley Barnes knocks down for Chris Wood, who hits a powerful strike first time into the net. A big goal for the home side.

Superb from Manchester City. Ederson and his defenders play some remarkably composed passing football in their own box, before setting Mahrez on his way. He gets all the way to the edge of the box and looks to pick out the top corner. The shot flies just wide.
