Curtis Langdon: Northampton Saints need to build momentum in Europe

Saints have not won the continental trophy since the Challenge Cup in 2013-14 and will be looking to build on last season’s European efforts.

“We just want to make memories and see if we can go further,” Landon added.

“Castels is here, France. Physically we didn’t play in the first half (against Gloucester) and next week will be a big test to correct some mistakes.”

With seven games played, Northampton sit eighth in the Premier League and must close the 10-point gap on the play-off places to have any chance of defending the title they won last season for the first time in a decade.

One consolation for Saints was England half-back Alex Mitchell coming on as a substitute for his first appearance of the season After a neck injury.

Langdon added: “It’s a difficult time for Mitch, he’s injured and there’s some uncertainty about how long he’s going to be out, we know he’s going to be back but we don’t know when.

“When he came in, he gave us a big boost. He was obviously excited to be back and brought a lot of rhythm to our game in the second half.”
