Nobody could get near Tom Fellows

Successful dribbles: 44. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Cruel end for Birmingham as Southampton pounce

There is no crueller way to lose a football match. Southampton scored in the 94th minute, the restart barely happened, and the away end was still standing when the whistle went.

Match19 Sep 2026

Southampton make it 6 in a row

Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Southampton have 6 straight wins of it.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Finn Azaz in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Southampton this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Southampton supporters have found a favourite in Samuel Edozie

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Samuel Edozie has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Match19 Sep 2026

Finn Azaz the difference as Southampton beat Birmingham

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Finn Azaz. 1‑0 against Birmingham, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Nathan Wood falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Finn Azaz was the difference for Southampton

Marked 7.95. Ask anyone leaving the ground what settled it and you will get one name, which is the only award that has ever really counted.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Too much change too quickly at Southampton

11 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

Match29 Aug 2026

Southampton make it 3 in a row

Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Southampton have 3 straight wins of it.

Market31 Aug 2026

Baylee Dipepa moves on

Swansea City pay $1.4M, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Flynn Downes in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Southampton this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match29 Aug 2026

Tom Fellows sends Southampton past Blackburn Rovers

It finished 1‑0, and it was Tom Fellows’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Southampton.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

Ninety minutes of Tom Fellows at his very best

Marked 8.18. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Southampton.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

Léo Scienza was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.04. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Squad31 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Jack Stephens

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Jack Stephens, and the manager let it.

Market31 Aug 2026

Colchester United expected to open talks for Hugo Fisher

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. Southampton will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Tom Fellows named player of the week

One weekend, judged against everybody else's. Tom Fellows has come out on top of it, and for most footballers a weekly award is the only silverware a career ever produces.
