da apostebet： Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl says that Che Adams is “frustrated” whenever he is left out of the club’s starting XI, per The Daily Echo.
What’s he said?
da premier bet： Adams has made 21 appearances in the Premier League thus far this season but he has started just eight of those games.
He has yet to score in the top-flight and has played the full 90 minutes just once, in a September win over Sheffield United.
And Hasenhuttl admits that Adams is often left exasperated by his failure to get into the first-team.
He said: “He is a guy who is one day a little bit frustrated when he sees he doesn’t play but then when the game comes, he shows up immediately and this is fantastic.
“That’s why we brought him here.”

A huge flop
It’s no surprise that Adams isn’t in the team.
While Hasenhuttl has regularly played 4-4-2, he routinely pairs Shane Long with Danny Ings.
Ings, of course, has been in brilliant form, scoring 15 goals in the top-flight this season – only Jamie Vardy, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, and Sergio Aguero have scored more – while Long has scored two and provided three assists.
Adams, though, has not hit the net even once.
Signed for a fee of £15m in the summer, he has failed to live up to his potential at any point and Hasenhuttl is absolutely right to leave him on the sidelines and use him solely as an impact substitute.
Adams faces even more frustration as the season progresses.
Meanwhile, Hasenhuttl can kill two birds with one stone if he does this!
