Southampton have requested referee Mike Dean does not officiate their upcoming fixtures and will appeal the red card shown to defender Jan Bednarek in their 9-0 loss to Manchester United.

The Saints ended the game with nine men after Alexandre Jankewitz was dismissed after only two minutes

Saints also do not want Lee Mason, who was the fourth official at Old Trafford, to officiate their games.

Mason was the referee in Saints' recent controversial 1-0 loss to Aston Villa.
