Total Saints Podcast

Southampton’s away struggles continued this weekend as Saints fell to a frustrating 2-1 defeat at Wrexham.

Despite dominating large parts of the first half and creating enough chances to take control of the game, Saints failed to make their opportunities count before defensive mistakes proved costly. Martin Starke is joined by Steve Grant, Glen de la Cour and Alfie House to discuss Cyle Larin’s difficult afternoon, Leo Scienza’s injury, James Ward-Prowse getting back amongst the goals and whether Southampton’s lack of quality beyond the starting XI is beginning to show.

There’s also a potentially significant week ahead for the club, with Tonda Eckert’s FA hearing reportedly set for Thursday. The panel discuss the possible outcomes, the difference between a touchline ban and a wider suspension from football activity, whether Saints could appeal any sanction and what the club might do if Eckert becomes unavailable.

Elsewhere, the team discuss the response to Wrexham’s pre and post-match social media posts, Friday’s planned behind-closed-doors friendly against Aston Villa, the latest on Casper Jander, Southampton Women’s goalless draw with Sunderland and the wider issue of Premier League clubs recruiting academy players at increasingly young ages.
