Today we are coming up against another squad that could prove a tough challenge and that squad is Stoke City. We should take the 3 points but it will be a tough challenge.

As you will see in the picture above I have changed the formation, not to much the squad but the formation.

Stoke are also playing the exact same formation so it will be interesting to see how this game pans out.

Obviously a big change I have made is playing Rodriguez at Striker. I just felt like Lambert and Gallagher were not doing the job so I decided to change it up!

Final Score: Stoke 4 - 1 Southampton

The worst result so far we got absolutely smashed. This has been disappointing so far not one win in the EPL so far.
And also awful news, Dejagah can not complete his loan move because we do not have the funds we need. :(

Disappointing month as I only picked up 1 win. Lost two and drew two. Here are the results and above is a picture of the league standings!

Southampton 2 - 3 Crystal Palace
Lambert 46, Delaney OG 77. Ince 30 Chamakh 33 ledley 79

Southampton 0 - 3 Cardiff
Eikrem 15,44 Wittingham 32

Southampton 1 - 1 P Aston Villa (Capital One Cup)
Lambert 60 Hutton 88

Norwich 1 - 1 Southampton
Snodgrass 79 Lambert 63

Fulham 0 - 2 Southampton
Wanyama 55 Lambert 71



In the last 3 games of the month Rickie Lambert was vital, scoring 3 goals in 3 games.
Also Jay Rodriguez was not doing the job, not finishing his chances so I changed up his training to focus especially on finishing, The players morale was very low, but I when we started to get some results together near the end of the month it started to get higher and now I think we can start pushing up the table.
This was an overall very impressive month as we only lost one game. That defeat was against Spurs although we deserved the win, we dominated them for 90 minutes and they got two lucky goals especially their winner which was on a counter on the 89th minute.

The whole team put in amazing performances over the month, but the three who stood out for me were Adam Lallana, James Ward Prowse and Victor Wanyama. Adam Lallana actually picked up player of the month.In the Spurs game Adam Lallana actually picked up a injury but has now returned to full fitness at the end of the month.

Here are the results and the goalscorers:

Southampton 3 - 2 Liverpool (A)
Lallana 14,73 Lambert 33 Suarez 69 Coutinho 76

Southampton 1 - 2 Spurs (H)
Lallana Welbeck, Adebayor

Southampton 1 - 1 Man City (H)

Jose Fonte Sergio Aguero

Southampton 1 - 1 West Brom (A)
Lambert Anelka (pen)

I think our most impressive result so far this season was against Manchester City as they are actually top of the table and we managed to pull a draw from that game which I was delighted with. Thanks to the 5 points we picked up this month we are now up to 15th in the league. Although we are without Jay Rodriguez Ryan Gauld has been playing his role well as he picked up the assist against Man City. Hopefully we can pick up the more points next month!


Another very nice month except for the one result versus Swansea. That result was atrocious.
Lallana and Guly Da Prado both had a very good month.

Results: Southampton 1 - 0 Sunderland (H)
Do Prado

Southampton 1 - 0 West Ham (H)
Schneiderlin

Swansea 3 Southampton (A)
Lamah 2 Vazquez

Southampton 1 - 0 Hull
Lallana

Despite all the wins being narrow the football we were playing was absolutely amazing. The way we can play out of the back is one of a kind. Remember when we were 20th in the league a few months ago now look at the picture below be shocked! :)
