A new era is well underway at Saints, with Mauricio Pellegrino now at the helm following Claude Puel’s departure last month. The Argentine will have had two weeks of training with his players by the time Saints kick off on Saturday, however some of the most crucial members of Pellegrino’s squad only returned last Friday, […]
As the days go on, it looks increasingly likely that Virgil van Dijk will soon be heading out the exit door. This, for Saints, is incredibly bad news of course. We are set to lose our captain, our best player and most prized asset. Some may argue that Van Dijk is the best player to […]
Southampton defender Jose Fonte has stated that he is proud to be a player for Saints, despite long-standing scrutiny over his future at St Mary’s, A Bola have reported. The Portuguese international has only missed one league game this season for Claude Puel’s side and has appeared in both EFL cup ties so far this term. However, […]
Southampton will be looking to go one better from their previous meeting with Arsene Wenger’s men this Saturday as they travel to North London to face an in-form Arsenal side, who will be looking to win their second game of this Premier League season.

For the first Friday Night Football of the season, Southampton travel to Old Trafford to face a star-studded Manchester United side.

English goalkeeper Alex McCarthy became Southampton’s third signing of the summer this afternoon, completing a move from Crystal Palace and signing a three-year contract on the south coast. McCarthy only spent a year in South London; he joined The Eagles from QPR last summer but only made seven starts and fell down the pecking order, […]
Southampton saw off Dutch opposition, FC Groningen, to end their tour of Holland in the best possible way – three wins from three. Charlie Austin’s 75th minute header was enough to overcome the ‘Green and White army’ in a pretty boring, standard pre-season friendly, in all honesty. Virgil van Dijk captained the side against his […]
Southampton travel to the home of FC Groningen to play the last of three pre-season friendlies on their tour of Holland tomorrow afternoon. There has been one departure from the Saints squad since the last match – a 2-1 win over FC Twente – with goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga heading out on loan to Segunda Division team […]
Southampton face FC Twente this evening in Claude Puel’s third game as manager in a pre-season friendly match.

[…]
