As you may have seen across our social media channels, Southampton legends Matt Le Tissier and Rickie Lambert have been spending time in Chicago, meeting Saints fans from across the pond.

The Windy City was the host location for the Premier League Mornings Live event, as a record-breaking crowd of 15,646 fans descended on Lincoln Park to watch live screenings of every Premier League match across the weekend.

Lambert also visited Wrigley Field to sample a Chicago Cubs baseball game (above), while the iconic No 7s were warmly welcomed by a strong contingent of Saints fans at the festival, who queued from 4am to watch the Ipswich game with the legends, as Matt and Rickie signed shirts and posed for photos (below).

Later that night, The Embassy pub was the venue for a Q&A with the legends, offering more of our furthest supporters the unique opportunity to put their questions to their heroes and spend time in the company of Saints royalty (below), with live music provided by the Brass Animals, themselves proudly kitted out in the red and white stripes.
