After 11 years in England’s top division, Southampton is heading down to the Championship after a 2-0 loss to Fulham sealed its fate with two games to spare.
That leaves two more relegation spots to fill and two of the four teams in most danger β Leeds and Nottingham Forest β are showing fighting spirit to avoid the drop.
