Total Saints Podcast

Welcome to Episode 337 of the Total Saints Podcast – your home for all things Southampton Football Club!

Plenty to cover this week:

• Swansea Review – Another frustrating afternoon at St Mary’s as Saints were held to a goalless draw by Swansea. Will Still called it “one of our best performances of the season,” but was it really? 21 shots, 3.26 xG, and still no goal — we break it all down.

• Bristol City Preview – A tricky midweek trip to Ashton Gate. Can Saints finally turn dominance into points and end their run of home draws?

• Blackburn Preview – Another away day follows on Saturday, with Rovers struggling near the bottom. Is this the perfect chance to build some momentum?

• Plus, we catch up on Saints Women in the League Cup and check in on how the Prediction League is shaping up!

Featuring Martin Starke, Steve Grant (SaintsWeb), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10), and Alfie House (Daily Echo).

Welcome to Episode 336 of the Total Saints Podcast – your home for all things Southampton Football Club!

Plenty to cover this week:

• Swansea City Preview – Saints return from the international break to host Swansea at St Mary’s. With both sides level on points, can Will Still’s men finally find consistency? We’re joined by Luke Davies from the Swans Cast Podcast to size up the opposition.
• Ross Stewart Injury Update – Just when it looked like his Saints career was getting started, another setback rules him out for “months rather than weeks.” What does that mean for the season ahead?
• Saints Women on Fire – Two wins over Pompey in one week, including a comeback 5–2 victory at Fratton Park. We look at Simon Parker’s side’s rise to third in the league and what’s clicking this season.

Welcome to Episode 335 of the Total Saints Podcast – your home for all things Southampton Football Club!

Plenty to cover this week:

• Derby Review – A 1–1 draw at Pride Park, and another frustrating afternoon for Will Still’s Saints. Ross Stewart limped off again, and despite taking an early lead through Adam Armstrong, Saints failed to build on it. With just one shot on target after the break, are we really improving – or just standing still?
• Sheffield United Review – A scrappy 2–1 win on the road. Ross Stewart’s brace sealed the points, but it was far from comfortable. Did Saints finally turn a corner, or did they just get away with one?
• Will Still Discussion – Four points from six looks good on paper, but has the mood really lifted? With the international break ahead, we ask whether Saints are still searching for their identity – and if patience is starting to wear thin.
• Player of the Week – After Nathan Wood took the honours last week, who stood out this time? Alex McCarthy, Ross Stewart, Adam Armstrong, and Wood himself all in contention.
• Saints Women & U21s – Wins all round. The Women beat Birmingham 2–1 away (Primus and Peplow on target), while the U21s thrashed Derby 4–1 to stay unbeaten in Premier League 2.

Welcome to Episode 334 of the Total Saints Podcast – your home for all things Southampton Football Club!

Plenty to cover this week:

• Middlesbrough Review – A 1–1 draw at St Mary’s against the Championship leaders. A better performance, but one win in seven raises concerns. Did Will Still’s switch back to a back five steady the ship, or just paper over the cracks?
• Liverpool Review – Predictable Carabao Cup exit at Anfield, but with some positives to take. Did we see glimpses of progress, or just another missed opportunity?
• Sheffield United Preview – Saints head to Bramall Lane on Tuesday night. With United finally off the mark under new management, can Saints find a way to end their winless run?
• Derby County Preview – The last game before the international break. With Derby struggling for goals but staying competitive, can Southampton finally take advantage against a side around them in the table?
• Saints Women – A 1–1 draw with Sunderland leaves Simon Parker’s side 6th in WSL2, four points off top spot.

Welcome to Episode 333 of the Total Saints Podcast – your home for all things Southampton Football Club!

Plenty to cover this week:

• Hull Review – A 3–1 defeat, five games without a win… and arguably the lowest point yet under Will Still. Was this on the manager, the players, or both? We look back at a wasted trip and some worrying signs.
• Liverpool Preview – Saints head to Anfield in the Carabao Cup to face the Premier League leaders. Does anyone even care about this tie, or is it just a distraction?
• Middlesbrough Preview – Rob Edwards’ high-flying Boro visit St Mary’s. Can Saints finally turn a corner against the Championship pace-setters?
• Saints Women – A narrow 1–0 defeat to Bristol City leaves Simon Parker’s side 5th in WSL2 after three games.

Welcome to Episode 332 of the Total Saints Podcast – your home for all things Southampton Football Club!

Plenty to cover this week:

• Pompey Review – Thirteen years we waited for a league South Coast Derby… and it ended 0–0. Was it a fair result, or a wasted Sunday lunchtime? We look at the performance, the selection choices, and whether this Saints side can really handle the big occasions.
• Hull City Preview – Attention turns quickly to a tricky trip to Hull. Can Will Still’s men put things right and finally find some rhythm in the league?
• TSP in the Spotlight – From sponsoring both Saints captains (Jack Stephens and Atlanta Primus) to featuring on the St Mary’s tifo, the pod has been busy off the pitch. We share the details.
• Saints Women – A wild 4–4 draw with Crystal Palace keeps Simon Parker’s side unbeaten but provides a real test of credentials early in the campaign.

Welcome to Episode 331 of the Total Saints Podcast – your home for all things Southampton Football Club!

Plenty to cover this week:

• Pompey Preview (Part Two) – The South Coast derby is back! Saints host Portsmouth at St Mary’s in the first league meeting since 2012. We’re joined by Andy from The P04Cast to get the Pompey perspective, and we share our score predictions ahead of a huge Sunday.
• Transfer window reaction – Saints finish with a net spend of £62m as Leo Scienza signs on deadline day. Outgoings include James Bree, Charlie Taylor and Will Smallbone. What does it all mean for Will Still’s squad, and what now for Sam Edozie and Joe Aribo?
• Saints Women flying start – A dominant 4–0 win over Ipswich kicks off the new campaign in style under new boss Simon Parker.

Welcome to Episode 330 of the Total Saints Podcast – your home for all things Southampton Football Club!

Plenty to cover this week:

• Watford 2–2 Southampton – A dramatic draw remembered for two stunning free-kicks. We look back on Cameron Archer’s second goal in as many games, Ryan Manning’s Beckham-esque strike, full debuts for Finn Azaz and Mads Roerslev, and the big questions heading into the international break.
• Norwich 0–3 Southampton (EFL Cup) – Saints’ best result of the week, with Ryan Fraser, Archer, and Matsuki on the scoresheet. But does the cup form count for much in the league?
• Transfer window latest – Big exits confirmed for Tyler Dibling (£35m to Everton) and Fernandes (£40m+ to West Ham), while Azaz, Casper Jander and Tom Fellows arrive. We round up the ins, outs, and what could still happen before deadline day.
• Pompey preview (Part One) – The first South Coast derby in the league since 2012 is nearly here. We size up Saints vs Portsmouth ahead of a huge clash at St Mary’s.

Welcome to Episode 329 of the Total Saints Podcast – your home for all things Southampton Football Club!

The Will Still era hit its first bump, as Saints fell to league leaders Stoke City in a frustrating defeat made worse by failing to make more than half an hour against ten men count. We pick apart what went wrong, who still shone, and what the result tells us about Still’s early blueprint.

We’re also looking ahead to a busy week:

• Southampton vs. Norwich – Tuesday night’s EFL Cup at Carrow Road: rotate or go strong?
• Southampton vs. Watford – A trip to Vicarage Road in the Championship and what to expect on the road.
• Transfer chat – New right-back Mads Roeslev, Tyler Dibling’s impending departure, and where the squad still needs reinforcements before the window closes

Welcome to Episode 328 of the Total Saints Podcast – your home for all things Southampton Football Club!

Plenty to get into this week:

• Ipswich Town 1–1 Southampton – Was a point at Portman Road a good result against one of the Championship favourites? We look back on Saints’ first away game of the season, the midfield trio of Downes–Charles–Fernandes, defensive struggles, Adam Armstrong’s role up top, and whether the bench was strong enough.
• Northampton Town 0–1 Southampton – A scrappy EFL Cup win that sets up a trip to Norwich in Round Two. Did anyone really stake a claim for the first XI?
• Southampton vs Stoke City preview – With Stoke top of the early Championship table, we’re joined by Potters fan Robin Evans to help us size up Saturday’s clash at St Mary’s. Should Will Still revert to a back four at home?

We also celebrate Paul Castle’s incredible 360km walk over 15 days, raising funds for men’s mental health charity Big Moose.
