Episode 367 - Total Saints Podcast

Saints are back in the top six — but they had to earn it the hard way.

A 1–0 win over an in-form Norwich side at St Mary’s extends Southampton’s unbeaten run to 13 games in all competitions and keeps the momentum firmly in their favour as the season heads into its final stretch.

Finn Azaz’s 10th goal of the campaign proved decisive, but this was far from a free-flowing performance. Instead, it was a display built on resilience, discipline, and a growing ability to win games in different ways — something that could prove crucial in the play-off run-in.

We break down the key moments from a tense night at St Mary’s, including Daniel Peretz’s standout performance in goal, the physical challenge posed by Norwich, and what this result says about the evolution of this Saints side under pressure.

There’s also discussion around the refereeing decisions, tactical tweaks, and whether this team now has the mentality needed for promotion.

Looking ahead, attention turns to another crucial home fixture as Oxford United visit St Mary’s — a side fighting for survival and unlikely to make things easy.

With momentum building and the stakes rising, Saints are firmly in the play-off fight. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
